Genuinely one of the best games I've played in recent memory. I was hype for this since the day I ran into someone talking about it 6 years ago and I'm still hyped after beating it.

The puzzles are masterfully crafted and there's a ton of ways to solve them without feeling like the game is resorting to hiding elements. Even then, the ability to freely rewind every action back to the start of a turn (1 at a time) means that even mistakes can be rectified and you are free to experiment. Each character's abilities felt incredible to use without feeling too broken (Things like rampage non-withstanding). The environment within the puzzles is highly varied and things change often enough to keep it interesting. Within the puzzles, there also exist challenges which offer points for cosmetic rewards if the individual area was found to be too easy. You can always come back to grab them later, but I found it quite fun to try and get as many as I could in 1 attempt (It's actually quite possible for most of the game!).

The story throughout the game was also highly compelling and, much to my entertainment, the dialogue was witty and full of humor without attempting to just be "ha ha funny curse words". Everyone feels like they have their motivations and they fully commit to them being characters instead of just archetypes or jokes. People have depth and they act in believable ways.

If you're on the fence about purchasing this game or you simply are looking for another wonderful casual experience, then I would say Tactical Breach Wizards is the game for you.

Remember: Steve is a self-righteous ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ who had that defenestration coming. Don't be afraid to rewind a few times to watch him going flying like the prick he is.

Stupidly fun for how simple it is. The gameplay loop is extremely simple, but addictive. The developers took a simple concept and executed no more than that. An easy purchase that will have you playing for hours on end.

The better civ, that's all I have to say. I have yet to play a game that's better than this one within the 4X style of play. It has wonderful elements of fantasy and there's actually a strategy to fighting with your units. Armies can be made of just about any units and the composition matters. There are several ways to win, including a specific set of quests for each faction. The lore is wonderfully immersive and interesting. Instead of "Great People" you have Heroes, who can be used for so many different tasks. Need a Governer for a city? Assign a Hero. Need a general for your favorite army? Assign a hero. Lastly, every single faction is unique and has thier own "style" for how they go about winning. All of this, and some amazing graphics, combine together to create an amazing game which I wholeheartedly reccomend.

This game is one of the best dungeon crawlers I have ever played. It's got an interesting thought on how your heroes, aren't badasses. They aren't the crazy overpowered adventurers of your dungeons and dragons power gamers. Your heroes will be as stressed as you and it WILL affect them. It's an experience that I won't forget and it's tested me morally as well. Are you willing to kill off your entire party that you've spent so much time on just to get a little more loot? The answer seems obvious, but after spending a decent amount of time on this game I can tell you it's not. I'ver sacrificed the lives of characters just to maybe have a chance at a little bit more loot. This game will turn normal aspects of party based exploration on thier heads and really make you think if anyone can truly be sane while exploring a dungeon... Good luck and may RNGesus smile on you during your travels.

easily one of the best games I have ever played. Awesome bosses, great soundtrack, artsyle of glory, and finally, adrenaline inducing epicness. 10/10 rating no complaints other than needs more characters (as every game like it always will). spend ur money on it, and you will be rewarded.
