Broken Lines is an alternative-timeline WW2 strategy game with a twist. Pros: - Great fighting mechanic - Squad management - There are certain points where you have to make certain decisions which impacts the game's ending so it is replayable multiple times Neutral: - Cutscenes are meh - I don't know why but the depiction of the germans are really weird in this game - The story is meh Cons: - Character models are weird looking - No voice in dialogues only humming 7/10. It's a great experience. Can recommend it on a sale.

This game is overhyped for real. It has rly average tactical gameplay, which become boring in hour-two. Control on the battlefield is awful. Even though for 3 hours of gameplay i didnt lose any soldier, i always got confused about giving needed orders and to manage movements of my people. Management out of battle, which is about camp side, is so boring mechanic. What was the point to add it? To adjust the plot? Well, it didnt help. Characters are not interesting, and voice acting on the level "HMMM" was so annoying. I didnt make it to the end because i tired. Its not the game i expected when i read those reviews.

Good indie Game. It's a light strategy game where you will command a 4 or 5 man sized squad (from 8 characters to choose from) . Game is based on 8 second real time auto paused sessions where you will give a sequences of orders to your troop (like run or use an ability). After a mission you will have to manage a few resources (food, buy and switch weapons, some special **** much else), and assign perks to yours soldiers. There are also some dialogues that alter morale, relations and skill of your squad The good: 1) Different missions to choose from that will exclude one- another ...so you will probably finish the game at least two times to see different paths. 2) Moral and dramatic decisions that are often in the "gray area" so...there is no easy good-guy path 3) A very pleasant aspect of the game is that there is NO option to save a game during missions or before a path **** you can't abuse save-spam to see an outcome beforehand..this will add tension and fun-mistery to the game 4) Not too long to finish... you will need about 7 hours ..but you will probabily replay it to see other paths and endings. Missions are also short but in a good way so there isn't downtime 5) Soldiers have their personality. 6) Mystery (supernatural or sci-fi) and WW2 Mix Well The bad: 1) Combat is somewhat lackuster...very few options and basic A.I. 2) Rpg and managemen are also basics. 3) Most parts of the plot are not explained....this give some **** also feel a little disappointed. 4) Some late game repetitiveness...mostly because point 1 and 2. 5) Cutscene are very basic...most of the story is narrated through text and still **** could be better. Maybe buget restrictions. To sum up a good indie if you can find it at a good price. I liked it and I hope for a sequel but with a little more options and things to do.
