Invaders from Dimension X

I actually enjoyed this. Definitely has a strong boardgame feel with dice and random cards. Won the first scenario on normal without any difficulty, but I imagine it could be more difficult if the aliens were luckier with their card draws. In spite of the fact it has only two scenarios I'd expect them to play differently each time, although the novelty will probably wear off fairly quickly. Hopefully the harder mode will actually be harder. My first game was quite relaxing to play though. Easy enough to learn the rules and enough options to give you something to think about. Worth it when it's on sale and if you enjoy boardgames, cards and dice rolling.

After some research about solo board games (Spring 2020, confinement time), I discovered Tiny Battle Publishing and was pleasantly surprised to discover this digital adaption of one of their titles. This is a fun light solo wargame, with some original ideas (the way the aliens activate is interesting). The gameplay presents an interesting mix of randomness (the dice combat, the order of Alien Activation Events) and strategy (example: you have a little bit of control on events with scouting). I had to play some times before winning my first victory on normal (and I appreciate that). Only two maps (with two levels of difficulty), but the various random factors give the game more replayability. There is no tutorial (some help accessible inside the game), it’s really useful to read the short manual. The interface is a little basic (not much options), but functional. The art on the cards is very nice, better than the illustrations of the original board game. The full price on Steam is maybe a little high (from a Canadian perspective) but there are sales (I bought it in an other store). I like the sci-fi b-movie theme and would like to see more games like this one.

it's a simple game and it captures the feel of the board game very well.

Simple, but surprisingly fun board game. Lots of random results. Graphics could be better, but serviceable. Needs a skirmish mode or a way to generate random scenarios, as there are only several pre-made scenarios to choose from. Other features I'd like to see: map board zoom in/out and co-op multiplayer mode

Do not buy this. Could probably be very fun except it crashes multiple times a turn.

Always like to support small Indie Game houses. I know there are more games coming from Yobowargames this year. Quick and easy to play but lots of "Rallying " to deal with. Fun game great graphics on counters!

Not sure on this one, basically played the first mission and trying to move to the other side of the map, but instead get surrounded by enemies who constantly stun your units, so you just sit there trying to roll 6's for every unit so you can actually do something else the next turn, only to have them stunned again on the enemy turn, repeat until you lose. Every couple of turns one of your unit would get to try and attack but not succeed. I might try another mission and see if its any different, but this sort of thing leaves me not wanting to do so.

I had a lot of fun with this, the 2 scenarios included are great but BIG DOWN side is the campaign was broken for me. Something to be aware of for buyers, the 1st mission doesn't let you summon reinforcements. Hopefully that gets fixed. Still enjoyed overall thought.....

This game is real one! I can play forever alone!

I love the board game, and this PC version plays so much quicker. My only criticism is that the playing area should be adjustable, so that it is easier to see where all the Kayotz are without having to pan around.
