The Bearded Ladies' XCOM-inspired tactics game, from former Hitman and Payday designers, is Very Positive on Steam eight years on -- but its marketing promise of open tactical freedom runs into a review history that's remarkably consistent about a harder truth: there's really only one viable way to play it, and the game punishes almost every other approach severely.
7 / 10
A post-apocalyptic tactical RPG from Mutant Year Zero's creators whose art and atmosphere draw near-universal praise, undercut by a genuinely contested balance debate — cover that one reviewer tracked failing 396 times in 432 attempts, ability cooldowns that don't reset between fights, and a design its own most-upvoted defenders feel compelled to argue for.
6.5 / 10
