Gem Wizards Tactics

Suddenly the newest update disables recruiting units. That knight was 100% recruited and then after the mission he's gone. What the ♥♥♥♥.

https://youtu.be/KTzy_uu6FdU Weirdness and complexity go hand in hand for this hex based tactics game. It'll take some time to learn the unique units but the quality makes it worth it.

Good game, I wish it got more love from the greater gaming community

VERY good game along the lines of Into the Breach

great game

Wait for a sale. "Into The Breach" if it were far more ambitious but still it is an overall worse game. Did not go far enough to give a game like this a fair thumbs down though I don't expect it gets better. It generally gives you what is advertised and what you expect but none of it was fun to me. Didn't crash or have any issues launching the game or jumping into the action. Also comes with replay value but that would only matter if your first playthrough was fun.

The story and theme is about as subtle as a brick but it has a lot of charm and the occasional line did make me laugh. The gameplay is a very interesting mix of traditional hex based unit combat, unit special abilitys and terrain manipulation. Unit placement and ability usage tend to be much more important than unit stats in this game, which tends to lend a more strategic style of play rather than just "Bigger number wins". Also each faction is meaningfully different in both theme and play. The mix of graphic styles is a bit odd, about 2/3's of the game is very well designed pixel art and the rest is mostly high fidelty minimalism. It clashes.

Now this is a turn based tactics game that will really have you thinking. One wrong turn and it could all be over. But all is not lost as the beautiful graphics will keep you playing again & again.

Oddly enough my main gripe with this game is the difficultity and randomness. Overall i don't think being a roguelike makes this game any better.
