Great game! Loved my time with. There's a deep addiction that prevents me from stop playing. Loved this!

My favorite XCOM like! Very addicting, with a really cool meta progression system. Loved it

It surprised me in a very positive way, and it’s yet another proof that flashy graphics aren’t everything in a video game. It’s a strategy game that feels a lot like chess, but with additional mechanics that, while not complex, make matches deeper and more interesting. On top of that, it follows a roguelike premise: if you lose, you have to restart the campaign from the beginning (but don’t worry—you can finish it in just a few **** each match, you control three types of mechs, each with a specific purpose on the battlefield (the board). Every mech has a pilot who gains experience and abilities as the team succeeds in battles. If a mech is destroyed, you lose the pilot, and only the basic robot—without abilities—can be used in future runs (though you can obtain others). The focus of each match isn’t eliminating enemies, but protecting buildings, which effectively represent the player’s “health.” Even though it sounds simple, you really only get the hang of it after losing quite a **** forced campaign restart when you lose is actually a great idea, as it allows you to save at least one mech pilot and go back in time to try everything again. The game features a well-designed progressive difficulty system that gives you time to learn, but also includes randomness that can be frustrating at times. Enemy variety is interesting and genuinely impacts gameplay (damn spiders). There’s a lot of replay value, since you can finish the campaign at different points (the later you go, the harder it gets), and you can also unlock other mech squads with abilities very different from the starting ones.I really liked the fact that matches are short and that you can save at any time (not everyone has hours to spend gaming). Into the Breach is excellent—and it will hook you (in a good way).

Yet another overhyped game. It is in essence puzzle game with some strategy elements. But it will definetly entertain you for several hours or so. And yes, it is very quality game.

Plays less like a tactical game and more like a puzzle game. While such trait is not inherently bad, it creates a repetitive and unfair gameplay loop due to the randomness of the combat puzzles.

I needed a game to fill my weekend while I waited for Metaphor to arrive, and Into the Breach did the trick perfectly. I got completely hooked and put 11 hours into it over two days. It's one of the best indie strategy games I've ever played.

In my view this is basically a perfect game. The concept is largely connected to chess (8x8 grid, pieces that have their movement patterns) with many key differences (environmental objects, weapons, each "player" moves all their pieces on their turn). In that regard it maintains the same beautiful minimalism of chess but upgrades its richness in numerous ways. It's tied together by the variety of squads and how they really synergize with each other, on top of the additional synergies you get with in-game pickups.

Into the Breach is another great game that I am very bad at. The delicate balance of strategy, combat, and resource management means you're constantly on your feet, making sure you're aware of every mechanic. What's the most mission-critical? Can I risk letting one of my units get hit? How do I minimize civilian casualties? Add onto that the occasional hazards to spice up the gameplay, and you're met with an extremely thrilling and challenging time.

Into the Breach is a masterclass in tactical gameplay. Every decision matters, every move feels meaningful, and the minimalist design hides deep strategic complexity. Its tight, turn-based combat rewards careful planning and adaptation, with each run offering new challenges and satisfying breakthroughs. A brilliant blend of roguelike structure and puzzle-like battles, it’s an absolute gem for strategy lovers.

I'm surprised I don't have a review for this masterpiece! IT IS AWESOME! I had to get all the achievement, just couldn't stop playing lol

Interesante propuesta tactica por turnos pero no me termino de atrapar por lo que lo deje a las horas de juego tras varias sesiones de juego

A very challenging puzzler game similar to the FTL but an entirely new approach. Fun gameplay I would highly recommend.

This is a really good turn-based tactics & puzzle-strategy game, it's pretty unique and worth a try for anyone into these types of games.

First of all, I am aware that I am probably not the type of guy a game like this is made for because I'm not really that much into puzzles but I can still absolutely appreciate how well made yet simple this game is. Doesn't really matter if you like puzzles or not this is still one of those experiences you should have.

A diamond **** that has been ruthlessly, painstakingly carved into its perfect form. Forces you into meaningful decisions each turn without being unfair or hostile - you always know exactly what your enemy is up to, it's on you to find some way to use your incredible array of tools to stop them. Extremely replayable.

Why play Into the Breach? It's a pure and simple turn-based tactics games that's really easy to get into and goes deeper than you expect. The visuals are appropriate with their future-pixel aesthetic and the music is both ominous and heroic, doubling down on the theme of doomed heroes going back in time to save the world. The roguelite loop fits perfectly here and keeps things fresh. Subset games knew how to handle a roguelite on their first effort, FTL, and they've only improved their craft here, with a well-balanced approach to difficulty scaling, choice and run time. But again, why play Into the Breach? It rewards strategic thinking and makes you feel like a hero.

(Reseña sacada de mi cuenta de Steam: APolChrome) He jugado 10 horas a Into the Breach y siento que he jugado mucho y poco a la vez. Y eso me encanta. Into the Breach es un auténtico juegazo que sabe innovar en un género del que no se puede sacar demasiada variedad (como yo creo que son los juegos tácticos por turnos). Y aparte saca muchísimo contenido que hace al juego larguísimo (no infinito como he leído a veces). Empecemos porque hay cosas de las que hablar.Jugablemente, es una maravilla. En unos escenarios muy compactos divididos por casillas, con 3 mechs deberemos proteger el escenario de los vek (unos robots alienígenas que pretenden destruir la tierra). Los escenarios son ciertamente pequeños, pero al juego le basta para hacer una cantidad de interacciones, variables y situaciones increíble. Y es que todo en el juego está pensado. Da igual pase lo que pase. Y es que la estrategia y el pensar se recompensa muy bien. Para dominar el juego tienes que controlar muy bien los enemigos, lo que hacen, lo que hacen tus mechs, los pilotos, los estados del escenario, las misiones... Pensar en las acciones puede parecer simple cuando empiezas a jugar, pero a medida que avanzas, hay decisiones que pueden determinar runs enteras. Y a veces, tendrás que hacer lo que menos te apetezca o convenga simplemente para seguir avanzando. Pero en parte, el juego recompensa esa espontaneidad del poder perderlo todo en poco tiempo y saber aprovechar lo que tienes.Y sí, en el aspecto de la variedad voy a reducirme porque además de ponerme como un loco a hablar sobre todo eso, sería spoilear un poco. Pero de lo que sí que quiero hablar es de la absurdamente gran cantidad de contenido que tiene. Para empezar, los mechs se dividen en grupos de 3 que puedes comprar con monedas. Las monedas se consiguen con los logros (cosa que me ha encantado y que les aporta un valor en el videojuego). Y el juego es también un rogue-lite, por lo que tienes que hacer runs y ver hasta dónde llegas. Hay 4 niveles de dificultad y no voy a decir más, pero creedme que hay mucho más contenido. El juego puede servir para llenar ratos muertos, ya que puedes guardar y salir en cualquier momento de la run. Pero es que engancha como pocos. Al desbloquear todas las islas, cada run se hace enteramente distinta y pueden salir cosas muy divertidas de cada una. Y aunque falles, te irás con la sensación de que has aprendido algo que no sabías.Audiovisualmente, es un 10. El juego es precioso visualmente, tiene un pixel art espectacular y un estilo artístico futurista ambientado en guerra maravilloso. El diseño de los mechs, pilotos y veks es increíble y en general, es muy bonito. Y la OST me ha encantado. Los temas que tiene son muy buenos y encajan excelentemente bien con el juego y la situación.Narrativamente, es donde menos se luce el juego. Pero es que ni le hace falta. Tiene unos personajes bastante carismáticos y aunque la historia es simple (una guerra contra aliens y robots lo tenemos bastante visto) se siente ciertamente diferente. Una de las cosas que más me ha gustado es que cuando empiezan y terminan los combates, los habitantes hablan y sueltan comentarios y hay algunos bastante **** conclusión, veréis que he escrito una reseña muy larga, pero además de dejarme mucha cosa, no dice lo bueno que es Into The Breach. Un juego de estrategia como pocos, que si te gusta el género y quieres algo que te tenga atento durante decenas o incluso cientos de horas, este juego es el tuyo. Y si no sabes si te gusta la estrategia, ponte en modo fácil y empieza con este juego, porque es un juegazo. Recomendadísimo

Gameplay: (Amazing) --- Graphics: (Mediocre) --- Story: (N/A) --- Score: (Good)

This game can be brutally challenging but it is an absolute blast. Less of a strategy game and more of a puzzle game.

Very good game. I enjoyed playing this game a lot. I strongly recommend this.

Very fun and can be short adventure. Alot of replayability with new mech and even achievement for every team, since you are a time traveler saving every possible timeline. Good personality for pilot Pretty difficult if you rush in and dont take your time 9/10 Great if you like one of those kaiju battle to protect the city

Never dipped my toes into turn-based, strategy games since I thought they would be boring, but this is an exception. This game is very good and really test your brain while not being 4d chess and the mechs are all fun to play with, even the bad ones. But wished the music was better because its only fine, and wished there were more areas.

"Kleine durchdachte Taktikperle für jeden." Wer sich schon lange damit plagt, mal einen Einstieg in das Taktikgenre zu wagen, hat mit Into the Breach den richtigen Eingang gefunden. Auf einer kleinen schön detaillierten Karte im klassischen 8x8 Schach Design, tummeln sich die Mechs in Pacific Rim Manier. Ein so versimpeltes Spiel in diesem Genre zu erschaffen ist eine Meisterleistung des durchdachten Gameplays. Das Spiel motiviert in seiner einfach Komplexität durch viele Möglichkeiten. Stichwort: Schach. Viele Einheiten freizuspielen, viele Modi auszuprobieren, wirken nie überladen, sondern schön platziert. Der Soundtrack ist wirklich gelungen, nur eine wirkliche Story sucht man vergeblich. Insgesamt eine sehr schöne Erfahrung die sich ganz oben neben dem Indie Thron setzen darf.

Superb and very addictive strategy gem. By the way can be played with controller without any problems, tested on steam deck.

I was reluctant to play this game because I was such a huge fan of FTL and assumed there was no way this game could be as good as that. Well, unfortunately, I was right. While the core game is very solid and engaging, it doesn't feel like something special and unique like FTL. Instead, it feels like a generic turn-based combat game. You've got three units to work with, and each gets a move-and-attack per round. It's a proven formula, but the early game quickly becomes dull and repetitive, as upgrades to the units seem to be very few and far between. I'm hoping it'll get more interesting with more unlocks, but I'm afraid I may just quit playing before then.

A bit simple, gives you some challenge. I like the graphics and the music. Wish there were more endings, it's the only repetitive thing for me. I've completed every single character before the release of the Advanced Edition, maybe I'll try it in the future.

Me personally its little too hard to play but it is still fun if you like Turn based strategy games but it could also be little repetitive.

Flawless sci-fi roguelike masterpiece and one of the best examples of an indie game design approach, where a super-polished gameplay formula prevails over anything else. S tier.

Into the Breach is a turn-based tactics game that has more in common with Chess or puzzle games than it does with XCOM and while that may be great for those competent with strategy or puzzle games, it's not so much fun for those who lack the patience to make the perfect play. If you are in the market for this kind of game though, you'll find a solid title with appealing pixel art, many mechs and abilities to play around with, and a top notch, atmospheric soundtrack thanks to the talents of Ben Prunty.

The roguelike mechanics actually feel like a shockingly poor fit for the game, especially considering the developers' pedigree. It's still worth giving a shot for a couple hours if you're into strategy games, but the game's replayability is not its strong suit.

This game is surely not bad: The treasure is the gameplay: minimalistic, but gives so many opportunity, this is an art, how to make gameplay: easy to understand but hard to master. It is like chess, but shorter: a battle need only few minutes and the campaign needs only 3-4 hours. Therefore you can play it a little bit and return to real life. In comparison to chess I see here more possibilities: An unit has more options, you can upgrade the units and buy new attack modes. In addition you have different maps, different objections. There are so many genius design elements...I would need too much time to write them all here.. This game is one of the few games, that I want to play it after beat it, because you can unlock new squads, that have different abilities and therefore changes the strategy. Perfect gameplay and thats why this game has so many rewards. There is another element, I like: Do you also ignore achievements, because they are stupid? Not in this game. With achievements you get points to unlock squads and the goals to get them fits nicely to invent strategies. Nice idea. For this game you need a good AI and it is great, even too good, because the AI is already hard on normal level. There are 3 levels in the game and there should be more, because I would like to play something between easy and normal. Look at civilization, there are so many levels and this is motivating. The setting, story and atmosphere fits together. But the presentation of the story could be better. Especially the graphics is so bad. This is how games looked 20 or 25 years ago and it could be very easy to make better graphics.

One of the most overrated games ever. It has a lot of issues - control, accessibility, visuals, and sound. And this game is extremely hard. So, avoid the "Must-Play" tag and stop wasting your time.

A fantastic strategy game. Limited moves, limited enemies, great gameplay. It's almost like a game of chess.

A solid, quasi-puzzle game. I played for ~15 hours before putting it down, but I might return to it on a plane flight. Best parts are the atmospherics / art style & the progression / rewards system. Worst part is that each run's beginning stages take too long to get through, even as you've improved. It hurts the replayability to have that level of tedium when there's no real challenge.

A decent strategy game completely ruined with non optional rogue-like mechanics. Most levels are more boring than challenging. If you do find yourself in an unwinnable situation, either due to a bad play, or more likely bad RNG, you're only move is to completely start over. Look elsewhere for a better game if you value your time.

If you are looking for almost endless replay value, look no further. Game is basically a series of interlinked puzzles with upgradeable mechs. There is a kinda steep learning curve, but once you get the basics you start to see new possibilities emerge. If you liked FTL you are gonna enjoy this.

In the distant future humanity fights against an army of giant monsters, known as Vek, using giant mechs that can be equipped with a variety of weapons, armour, and other equipment. Into the Breach is a rouge-like turn-based strategy game played on an 8x8 grid with a limit of five turns per ‘level’. At first it may seem rather simplistic, but the variety of moves and enemy types brings an almost chess like quality to proceedings. Figuring out how to best co-ordinate your three mechs each turn is both challenging and entertaining, and it’s easy to get **** in for hours at a time as you try to improve your performance. With the excellent FTL also in their catalogue, Subset Games seem to be making a real name for themselves within this genre, and I can’t wait to find out what there next project will be.

Played through everything in FTL, nuff said. ITB didn't hit at first, almost boring. But once you realize you can switch pilots (once someone dies in your best extras), freeze your own buildings and stand a freezer on a spawn... Much better. So much hidden strategy. Looks like the AI level match is spot on (if one wrong move and you are toast = your type of game). Oh, and the reason it feels repetitive is because you stick to the same guys. I did two runs, then switched squad and the game got all different. So it is FTL all over, kinda, lots to learn, every run until you "win" that one.

I feel like playing a game of chess on steroids. It's one of the best tactic game I've played. The infinite combination is really a brilliant part of the game where battles never are the same (even if they can feel like after 20 hours). I pretty much enjoyed everything, even if some of the main mechanics could have been better explained (permadeath, what to prioritize (grid, timepods, etc...)). I should not need to go on youtube to be sure that I am not missing an important part of the gameplay lol. But except that, I find that it was a pretty addictive experience. I played for more than 30 hours in 2 weeks to finish it with every team and I only have 2/3 of all the achievements. My only complain is that, although all the teams offer a different experience with their widely varied units and combos, the ''random'' team was not a good experience. You really need to be sure that you'll have a balanced team if you wanna go somewhere, because when I did it the first time, I had only one unit who could attack and the two others could only shove or move enemy units. It doesn't seem like a problem, but for whatever reason I always had ''burrowers'' as enemies, and they are THE ONLY UNITS that you cannot move or shove. So I had to accept game over after completing 3 islands only because those units were constantly attacking the buildings and I was never able to attack them. That part really **** and I feel this wasn't really calibrated by the dev team. I also would have like more story, because this is just pretty much the same every time. So after 20 playthrough, you don't learn anything and you also don't give a **** about what the characters says. It could have been nice to feel like you are learning bits of the story every time you start a new timeline. Or that you have a real ''final boss'' at the end when you finish the game with all the teams. But all in all, great experience. I hope the dev team will learn from the smalls mistakes here and there and offer us another great time in the future !

This game is one of the best turn-based strategy type games i have played, it is quite challenging even on easy mode for my first playthrough, but once you start to get a grip on the mechanics and gameplay it can be a rewarding experience, even with all the skill obtain through gameplay the game will still be a very though one to complete. The use of environments in combat is such a very well used mechanic you pretty much haven't seen much like it since. Instead of just being a backdrop for the action IT is part of the action, you'll shoot a missile towards a dam and it'll break causing it to flood killing the enemies on its way. The sprite work is absolutely amazing and i adore it. It can get boring to play, but i only started to get bored after 4 hours of playtime and still haven't seen everything you get to do. It has very high replay value. I would recommend this to anyone up for a challenge.

The game brings a challenge that tests the cunning and intelligence of the player, but there is also a piece random when you accidentally pass the level or can't pass it

greattttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt

Very nice take of this genre. More focus on position and landscape properties. It does this in a unique and challenging way. While I like the unforgiving gameplay somewhat, I must say it is a bit too harsh. One tiny mistake can ruin the whole campaign. Consider yourself warned. Edit: I changed from 8 to 9. This one is a grower! ;-)

It took me a while to understand how to play, but it's a really fun strategy game. My only issue is that the game gets really repetitive. I would've liked new maps or a 2nd storyline.

This game could make you like the genre, a must-have for every Switch players!

As I like FTL, this game also has great fun. It is like more complicated chess game. Unfortunately, like FTL too, the game ended too fast, I was hoping we could have longer game, more rpg system.

It's the best strategy game. I have spent a lot of time for that. However, its hard for new player

It's like playing chess. Meaning you might not find out if you messed up until 10 turns later. And if you find out then you've lost everything and have to start over. If I could pick a word to describe this it would be masochistic. I did not find a sense of exploration anywhere in the game.

It's a good game mainly for the lovers of turn based strategy, however I do not recomend this game for people that doesn´t like this kind of game.
