Scars of Mars

The real-time battles felt fresh and engaging, allowing me to enjoy them with a sense of tension. While there are action elements, the game essentially gives the impression of a turn-based dungeon RPG played at a very high speed, making for a unique system. Since the rules are new, it takes some time to get used to the controls, but I think that sense of busyness adds to the immersion. You can take your time upgrading and building your units before deployment, which provides a good balance, and I found the system to be well-designed. Even for those who aren't good with controls, the difficulty seems manageable by building up your units. Personally, I would have liked to see a more challenging extra mode. Looking forward to future updates! >> Update came in!! Yee-haw!!

もしかすると一見アクションゲームに見えないかもしれないですが、 これは間違いなくアクションゲームで、そしてかなり気持ちのいいアクションゲームです！ バトル中にできることは少ないですがシンプルな分、 自分のアクションがしっかり結果として跳ね返ってくるので 上達も感じられてどんどんはまっていきました。 ローグライトな部分やビルドの試行錯誤もあり もちろんその要素も非常に楽しいですが、 このアクションの気持ちよさをぜひ味わってほしいなと思いました！

ゲーム内容は戦闘もビルドを考えるのもとても面白いです。そして皆さん揃って触れてますボリューム不足の件ですが、発売当初は数時間でストーリーをクリアしたら実質もうお終いだったそうですが、今年2月に実装された大型アプデのお陰で [h1]ストーリークリアまでがチュートリアル[/h1] になりました。今ならボリューム面でも値段相応には十分に楽しめるかと思います。本作にはデモ版もありますので気になった方は是非触ってみてはいかがでしょうか。 現場からは以上ですヾ('ω'*)ゝ

If this game was turn based and with more polish it could be better but in its current state it is just too bare bones and feeling like it was designed as a simple phone game that was ported to pc.

游戏评分：7/10 画面音乐：6.5/10 以我来看画面表现只能是说得过去，总是感觉有点简陋。有汉化，但是主界面没汉化，虽然不影响就是这种感觉很不舒服。整体UI是科幻简约风格，简陋主要是体现在我们控制的四个人物，只是四张图片头像，攻击会有一定的特效，怪物到是全3D，但是也没有什么细节动画之类的。而且敌攻击的画面表现也很糟糕，多数情况下就是看九宫格的显示红，游戏可能更加想要注重游戏的玩法。 音乐方面只能是给画面提供一些辅助，特别是战斗的警报声音会很多，紧张感很强。 玩法剧情：7/10 玩法确实有眼前一亮的感觉，我之前倒是没有玩过这个类型的游戏。全新的实时战斗的RPG，有爬塔肉鸽元素。战斗玩法是你控制四个角色，在一个九宫格的空间上和敌人战斗，你需要实时的分别控制四个角色进行战斗，合理转换位置，输出伤害，躲避敌人攻击。这种紧张刺激感十足，怪物设计的也很恐怖高大压迫感也很强。大玩法爬塔就是很杀戮尖塔类似，选择路线，到达终点，迎接BOSS即可。不同的地方是这个游戏后半段会有可以返回基地的选项，也就是可以中途退出并且带走之前获得的物资和经验，后面的关卡难度要大得多，你需要几次爬塔来提升自己的队伍的实力，这就体现了rpg玩法了。游戏主要的玩法就是实时战斗，但又缝合了其他的元素玩法。 每个角色可以携带武器，并且武器带有技能，武器又分为单手武器或者双手武器，再细分为近战和远战，防御和辅助，并且可以升级武器，就是之前撤离带来的设计蓝图。角色也可以更换职业和机体类型，当然这些职业和机体也是升级的。这个角色自定义玩法，可以自由搭配，武器后期强度也高，如果你实时战斗也操作的好得很，玩起来还是很爽的。角色可以换的外观也就是改个头像，其他的没有任何变化。这个rpg设定，问题就是很难一次去通关地图爬塔成功，你需要尝试很多次，提升自己。 游戏还有一个很重要的设定就是电池，每次爬塔会有一个100%电池，他会随着时间慢慢减少，地图上也有对于电池的玩法机制，信号强度以及一些和电池有关的选项。电池一旦为0，那么你的角色机体就会不能移动，等待你的就是游戏结束。那么能不能到达BOSS战，就要看你如何管理电池，合理控制保持电池，做出正确的判断。剧情基本上没有什么用处，剧情内容也很一般没什么亮点。 价格价值：6.5/10 游戏关卡也很少一共就三大关三张地图，体量很小游戏时长也就是4个小时样子就可以通关，其他难度的挑战重复游玩可能会提高游戏寿命。价格国区售价76，突出玩法的游戏，这个价格多少有点高，推荐也是打折时候再入手。游戏后续如果可以更新新的内容持续更新的话还是可以期待一下的。

Scars of Mars, developed and published by ACQUIRE Corp., is the kind of game that immediately distinguishes itself by refusing to follow the usual rules of its genre. While it presents itself as a tactical RPG on the surface, it quickly reveals a far more intense and unconventional identity by blending real-time combat with roguelike progression and squad-based strategy. Set within a silent and hostile Mars research facility, the game builds its tension not through elaborate storytelling, but through the constant pressure of survival and decision-making in a dangerous, ever-changing environment. What defines the experience most is its real-time tactical combat system. Instead of giving players the comfort of turn-based planning, the game keeps everything moving at all times. Your squad, composed of four customizable humanoid units, operates within a confined grid, and every action—attacking, dodging, repositioning, or activating abilities—must be executed quickly and deliberately. Enemies telegraph their moves, but reacting to them requires both awareness and speed. This creates a unique rhythm where strategy and reflex are tightly intertwined. Early on, this system can feel overwhelming, as multiple threats compete for your attention, but with experience, it becomes a rewarding test of multitasking and situational awareness. Complementing this is the game’s roguelike structure, which adds a layer of unpredictability and long-term engagement. Each expedition into the Martian facility unfolds differently, with branching paths that force players to weigh risks against potential rewards. Central to this loop is the battery system, which steadily drains as you progress. This mechanic introduces a constant sense of urgency, preventing overly cautious play and encouraging players to make bold, calculated decisions. The tension it creates is one of the game’s strongest aspects, as every choice—whether to push forward or retreat—carries meaningful consequences. Customization plays a major role in shaping how the game unfolds. Each unit in your squad can be equipped with different frames, weapons, and abilities, allowing for a wide range of tactical approaches. You might focus on building a resilient frontline, a mobile damage dealer, or a support-focused setup that keeps the team alive under pressure. The flexibility of this system encourages experimentation, and over time, players can refine their strategies to better handle the increasing difficulty. This progression adds depth and replayability, making each run feel like an opportunity to improve rather than simply repeat. However, the game’s ambition is not without its drawbacks. The real-time combat, while innovative, can occasionally tip into chaos, especially in later encounters where multiple enemies attack simultaneously. Visual clarity can suffer during these moments, making it difficult to track threats or execute precise actions. This can lead to frustration, particularly for players who prefer the measured pacing of traditional tactical RPGs. The learning curve is also quite steep, requiring patience and persistence to fully understand how all the systems interact. In terms of presentation, Scars of Mars adopts a functional approach that prioritizes gameplay over spectacle. The environments and character designs are clean and readable, but they lack the kind of visual flair that leaves a lasting impression. The atmosphere, however, is effective, capturing the isolation and tension of a compromised research facility on a distant planet. Audio design supports this mood with subtle, consistent cues that reinforce the sense of urgency, even if it doesn’t stand out as a defining feature. Narratively, the game remains relatively understated. The premise of a rescue mission on Mars provides context, but the story takes a backseat to the mechanics. This minimalist approach keeps the focus on gameplay, though it may leave some players wanting a deeper narrative or stronger character development. Instead, the game relies on its systems and atmosphere to carry the experience, which it does with varying degrees of success. In the end, Scars of Mars is a bold and distinctive entry in the tactical RPG space, offering a fresh take that blends real-time action with strategic depth. It challenges players to think quickly, adapt constantly, and embrace a level of pressure that is rarely seen in the genre. While its complexity and occasional lack of clarity may limit its appeal, those willing to invest the time to understand its systems will find a deeply engaging and rewarding experience that stands apart from more conventional titles. Rating: 8/10

好き嫌いがはっきり分かれそうな作品 自分には刺さった作品 惜しむらくはシナリオライターが逃げたんかってくらい短いシナリオと、アイテムの少なさ フルプライスのボリュームでアイテムも3倍くらいあれば評価も違ったと思う
