don't bother. there are better tactical games on steam even at this price. you are given 3 guys and are expected to fight masses of enemies. you can not win with a good strategy and winning is instead up to the RNG gods.

This game has it all, thrill, lore, character development, action and on edge gameplay and so much more. During my playthrough at certain times my arse would be clenched in fear and others id be sobbing into a tissue. This game is truly what all games should aspire to be and live up to and is honestly a masterpiece. I reckon Army of Squirrels has the potential to bring millions together and is truly a sign that there is still good on this Earth. Before my playthrough I was a piss drunken homeless man on the side of the road suffering from depression and after playing im still a piss drunken homeless man just minus the depression

I think Coedgy said it best - the graphics are the only thing hurting this game

Although It would be nice to have either more levels (there are only fifteen)
or randomly generated levels: it's possible for low-end development kits like Gamemaker

It's a turn-based puzzle strategy that's very easy to learn
and reminds me of a SNES or Genesis title I would've kept checking KB Toys'
bargain bin to turn up for $15 back in the early nineties.

This is easily the best strategy game ive played in a few years. Should be sold at 19.99 at least, at 79 pence it is an insane deal, this kind of charity been matched by society since food banks and universal credit were first introduced, i feel a sequel is in order with a fleshed out story. i wanna know more about the world of the squirrels and how they came to be. potentially a movie later down the line. 11/10

game is basically RNG to win and its not the fun kind of RNG either. You're given a map where the objective is to click in the right directions on the right turns in order to capture little tree spots all over the map, but there is never a strategic or intellectual reason to pick one path over the other, or one decision over the other, since most of it is picked at random anyway. if you go in the wrong direction at the wrong time, youre ♥♥♥♥♥♥. if you forget about the cards mechanic (where every couple turns basically the enemy has a chance to game end you lol) youre ♥♥♥♥♥♥. cherry on top is the battle mechanic is just each character taking turns rolling for damage against the enemy. theres even a mobile game style "finish the battle automatically" button to which the alternative is to click the "next turn" button until its over. Dont waste your money

This is a very badly balanced strategy game. You have 3 on your side and are expected to make stands against masses of enemies. And to top it off each side gets 4 cards that will just totally screw you over. On one map I got the enemy had a card to just instantly kill my planter which made winning impossible. And to top it off it had cards to do 10 damage to all on my side, 15 damage to all on my side (as two separate cards) and a card to make healing add 2 to cooldown. So yep, 25 damage that I can't resist and can't heal as I will be on cooldown forever.

Honestly the game could be fun if the card mechanic was scrapped totally. The cards really mess up any attempt at balance overall and make the game an RNG fest to try to pull it off before a card just ends the game for you.

It's like 7/10 but with improved graphics it would be a solid 10/10.

"Army of Squirrels" is a really, really badly made amateur furry friendly turn based tactical strategy game made for furries. The core concept of the game is furries. Also, really badly made turn based strategy. The game has you guiding a bunch of furries to fight an opposing gang of furries at ComicCon or something (I guess, if you want the full plot, buy the game, I'm not here to give you spoilers).

The game design itself is flawed, you spend a lot of time focused on a single resource generating tile that can be instakilled by RNG given to the AI. Whoever thought this was a good idea is probably the same kind of developer who thinks Steam really needs a low poly 1990's reject furry friendly turn based strategy game, and uh, I know I said I wouldn't do spoilers, but Steam didn't need a low poly 1990's reject furry friendly turn based strategy game.

From a technical perspective, the game doesn't meet basic minimum requirements that most PC gamers expect as standard.

There's no option to change the resolution and no useful graphics tweaks. There's no way to ensure this is running at the native resolution of your display. There's no guarantee this game will look right on any PC as a result of this hamfisted design decision.

The game features lazy low-polygon "retro" assets, making this look like a barely functional 3D game from the mid 2000s. It's unclear why the developers weren't able to arrange high quality, high polygon count contemporary assets for the game, and also irrelevant... what matters is that this looks bad as a result of their decisions, a compromise PC gamers shouldn't have to put up with.

The controls can't be customised, which will be an annoyance for many, but it can also render the game unplayable for differently-abled gamers, left handed gamers or gamers using AZERTY or other international keyboard layouts.

These technical defects push this game below acceptable standards for any modern PC game.

The poor quality of this game is reflected by how many people spent time with it. At the time of this review, SteamDB shows the all-time peak player number was only 3 players. This is a remarkably low number, and now, the only player activity occurs once or twice a month, presumably someone loading it up to see what it is then quickly uninstalling it. Considering there's over 120 million gamers on Steam and well over 100,000 games for gamers to choose from, the overwhelming lack of interest in this low quality game is to be expected.

So, should you buy this game? Is this one of the best of the 100,000+ games on Steam?

"Army of Squirrels" is relatively cheap at $1 USD, but it's not worth it. Given the defects and quality issues with the game, coupled with the unrealistic price, this is impossible to recommend. This is also competing with over 11,000 free games available on Steam, many of them far better than this paid product.

Super green!
