It’s like XCOM, as made by people who don’t have the budget, manpower, or quite frankly, talent to make XCOM. It does that thing a lot of XCOM-alikes do where it rewards playing as slowly as carefully as possible, but ditches all the incentives to move quickly and take risks, so the pacing gets shot to hell as you inch your way forward. Still moderately entertaining, and a decent attempt from a smaller studio.
