There is new life in the game after the class update

Factorio, more like Cracktorio. at least equally addictive

If you are a fan of the tabletop game and the lore, or RTS in general, this is a solid game, even if you are kind of gimped if you dont get the first game, since Mortal Empires requires TWW 1 in order to play.

Since I am a sucker for the cold war and espionage, I thought I would find this game right up my alley. Coming from xcom, the cover mechanic and the absence of rng and instead going for always hitting shots made it a bit confusing for me in the beginning. There is a chance of avoiding damage by having your agents dodge it but you are better of evading incoming fire by escaping line-of-sight or engaging in melee in the infiltration phase.

Like xcom, the game is hard in the beginning phase and starts snowballing towards the end, which could be avoided by maybe adding some more enemy types, more security devices etc instead of just adding health to the enemy. The maps become quite repetive after a while, with the mission type staying the same.

The investigation board with the pins and string is a really nice touch but it could use some more codewords,
And please add more cosmetics

Tldr; A rough diamond.

The game is free and it has hats, do you need more???
