There were parts of the game I immensely enjoyed. But I also dropped this game twice, before finally finishing it.
The problem, like with most Xcomish games, is that this game can get extremely slow. Final fight takes at least half an hour of real time. And that's not the only fight that's so long. You get a lot of situations, like in Xcom, were aliens are walking back and forth in fog of war. You also has this very quirky hit system, where you can miss twice with 90% accuracy, which is of course extremely annoying.
But it's still quite a solid tactic, with 8 unique characters, nice pixel art and pretty solid mechanics.
