About

Phantom Squad drops you into the chaos of top-down tactical combat built for co-op. Squad up with friends in 1–4 player missions where communication, coordination, and smart planning are the difference between clean execution and total wipeout.
Use voice chat and in-game tools to coordinate your approach. Move fast and adapt as things change; the enemy won’t hesitate.
When the shooting starts, every bullet counts. Miss your target and you won’t get a second chance. One shot can make or break your mission.
Firepower isn’t enough. Use over 20 specialized gadgets (scouting devices, incapacitating equipment, heartbeat sensors, breaching tools, traps and more) to gain the edge. Master them or get left behind.
No one clears a room alone. Team up with friends in fully online co-op missions built for communication and planning. Plan your entry, cover each angle, and move as one unit. During a mission, trust is your strongest weapon.
Every mission demands the right squad. Jump into quick, random matchmaking that pairs you with teammates. Coordinate, adapt, and execute under pressure, because in the field, teamwork isn’t optional. It’s survival.
Co-Op Teamwork: Squad up with 3 other players, each with a role, to execute perfect strategies.
Tactical Planning: Mark routes, objectives and entry points as the mission unfolds.
Friendly Fire: One wrong shot could take down a friendly. Stay sharp.
Realistic Combat: Precision gunfights where mistakes mean death.
Specialized Gear: Outthink, outmanoeuvre and outgun your enemies.
Global Threat: Your missions will lead you through downtown buildings, jungle compounds, arctic labs, …
Choose Your Difficulty: Rookie for new operatives, Normal for seasoned squads, Hardcore for those who fear nothing.

This game is great. I have only played this game for a couple of hours, but it's everything I've been looking for. I've been in the military and I've dabbled in policing. This game allows you to plan your course of action strategically, or you can just have fun guns a blazing. The room clearing techniques are practical and the ai doesn't seem to be too bad. They'll retreat until they have an advantage, they'll rush after you if they only have melee equipment affording you seconds to react. The field of vision is great. There is a visual cone that is your sightline, so even though it's top down, you can't see what's behind a wall because your vision is blocked. You cant see what's behind the door because it's closed and breaking the line of sight. You can open the door and pie the room, run the rabbit inside, and seek cover. It's just awesome and there are so few games out like this. You can play this game like Door Kickers, or you can control your character and clear rooms in real time at your control. The graphics are kind of cartoonish, but I don't mind it. Blood is present, you track footprints of blood if you step on it. You have to extract survivors to safe zones etc. You can use a riot shield, Taser, glass cutter, door camera, flash bangs, etc. There are multiple tactics you can employ to have a successful mission. The only bad thing about this game, and sadly it is a huge negative, is that it seemed to be designed as an online multiplayer. Since the game has had zero traction, and very little exposure, I can't find anyone else to play with. Just this morning I saw 7 people playing this game. 7. I couldn't find a lobby. I went to the discord channel and looked for a group, not even a response outside of a spammer. There are no AI teammates, and the developer has said they will not be adding them. You can play each mission solo, but since the game was intended for multiplayer, sometimes they can be challenging as you can take little damage before you die, and you only have 2 knock downs before you fail the mission. You do have some syringes and additional health unlockables, but when you play by yourself, you are sacrificing gadget spots that a team could communicate and gear up optimally. Obviously you have to be more selective playing solo. The syringes don't help much because there are a few levels that require all the hostages to stay alive, and the enemies will shoot them when they are in trouble, or use them as shields and you have to use a syringe to revive them in a short time just to complete the mission without failure. I think you only carry two syringes on you. That's really the only downfall. I think this game is great. I wish more people heard about it and played it. I know there is a market for this type of game because it's in the same vein as door kickers, it just didn't get the exposure or media traction it needed. It's also cheap. I recommend everyone buy this game, and with any luck it will have a resurgence. I thank the developer and creator for taking risks and working hard on a game that's just awesome. Disclaimer: I am not affiliated with anyone who made this game. I am just an old man who can't keep up with all the new graphics and 970 different control functions. This is essentially Ready Or Not, just lower graphical quality and polish. It's the same basic concept which is perfect for an older gamer like myself who enjoys tactical military/law enforcement engagements. It's also good to support independent projects because they take risks that established studios wont take because there are too many politics and no one wants to disrupt the status quo. That's why I buy a lot of smaller studio games. I want to support them because some games might not hit, but eventually, someone involved could be involved in creating your next obsession.
预计游玩时长4~8小时(如果你不卡关),为线性闯关,虽然我只玩过严阵以待,但这款战术模拟真的很狗屎。所有的步枪都比不上初始的消音冲锋枪,伤害精准度完全没区别,解锁的东西没有任何意义,你换把武器的结果就是惊动了其他敌人把人质杀了——结果还是要换回消音冲锋枪。战术工具两种,手电筒、夜视仪几乎没有作用,95%的关卡全程照明。 AI打人很准,血牛重机枪、近身自爆、会喷火的自爆。3个人一起玩跟坐牢一样,关卡设计也像一坨,一共12关越往后堆怪越严重。 11关强制主武器变为隐身衣要求全程潜行,这绝对是游戏最狗屎的其中一关,惊扰敌人响警报后直接失败。甚至还堆警报按钮,有一小节中一个小房间内有三个分散的按钮,必经之路上放了条狗,离狗太近也会惊扰敌人。只能使用副武器不正面迎战就卡关。 12关目标为必须同时救两个目标,不然另一边会心灵感应般的炸死另一个目标,有个L形角的房间内单杂兵和自爆,多数情况是两人在彼此视野内但不能同时打死,导致开枪打死杂兵,目标会被炸死。用静音武器打死杂兵,目标也会被炸死。 [strike]前面还有一关是队伍被俘虏后无装备潜行逃出敌方基地的[/strike][hr][/hr] 真的很烂,56不如去吃肯德基,剩下6块还能买根巧乐兹。
fun game to do with friends and has difficulty to it if you try to do all the challanges
Fun and easy to run.
Good game. Wouldn't mind a few more maps, even as DLC.
单调、流程短,但和朋友一起坐牢的乐趣盖过一切 [hr] 偏难的射击对抗:即使是在普通难度下,AI的反应也十分迅速、射击精准,还有各种血牛、自爆、喷火兵种,而我方只要中3枪左右就能归西。我明白游戏想主推战术配合,用各种道具预瞄、干扰敌人。但能组到朋友玩已经很不容易了,有SWAT经验、愿意慢慢体验的就更少了,导致直接对枪才是组队常态。当然这并不是说这个硬核方向不好,但如果想大众化还是多提供点参数设置选项以及存档功能吧(比如一关存档n次或提供存档点之类)。 较少的地图关卡:主线只有11关,剩下关卡都是在主线地图上随机生成敌人与任务目标。普通水平只玩主线的话整体流程只有7小时左右。对打折后的价格来说挺难评价值不值,只能说有很大的发展空间。 平衡较差的武器与道具:主要问题是有几个武器道具太通用了,导致绝大部分时候都没必要换武器。其他游戏的解法是做一些专门的关卡、地形来抬多样性,但这游戏恰好连关卡都缺。 不错的联机乐趣:虽然上述有挺多缺点,但不可否认玩的过程还是很有趣的。高难带来挑战性、道具带来合作点、失败带来凝聚力。有人一起坐牢的体验就是更好,这游戏尤为如此。因此有朋友的话好评,单人游玩绝对差评。
Inspired by games like Rainbow Six and Door Kickers, Phantom Squad makes its mark on the tactical genre. With how niche 90% of games in this genre are, Phantom Squad is pratically a spiritual successor to Door Kickers in many aspects. This is a COOP/Singleplayer game where you follow a team who was betrayed and is seeking revenge, there is NO RULES so you can straight up murder everyone withouth a single penalty (Except civilians, which will either give you an instant game over or you wont be able to 3 star the level). Theres a decent variety of enemies such as shotgun, rifle, flamethrower, dogs or the armored guys who take more bullets to die. Theres also the one who runs at you with a bomb with a MASSIVE radius so you are already dead. Solo mode is doable but AI should replace the remaining members because giving you 2 revives does NOTHING. For the price i paid, its generally a good game...Except the penultimate mission. Its IMPOSSIBLE as a solo player. Basically you have your gear and an invisible suit and your objective is to sneak around a facility to steal a scientist but HOLY you either die on the spot, people can sniff you from miles away apparently or the scientist is already in the panic room by the time you get to him. Also...NO CHECKPOINTS? WTF? Comparing that to the last mission is like night and day because the difficulty ramp is INSANE. Still a "fine enough" game. Fine as in the way of "play with friends, but dont expect a 10/10 experience" game.
Good game that requires good coordination with your teammate. Quite hard to be honest.
Phantom Squad est un excellent jeu tactique. Les niveaux sont relativement difficiles et il faut souvent plusieurs essais pour y parvenir. Il faut avoir le sens de l'observation, être rapide pour progresser. Quel plaisir de progresser et de gérer de mieux en mieux l'arsenal au fur et a mesure des scénarios qui sont parfaitement construits pour épouser la courbe de progression du joueur. On y revient régulièrement et notre rythme cardiaque rejoint souvent celui du personnage que l'on incarne :D Bravo
有点意思 我还蛮喜欢这种操控小人射击的游戏的 地图不多 光玩儿的话很快就结束了 东西感觉还是太少 难度算蛮难的 要物资管理又考虑人质 不管弹药爽杀只能低难度了
