Into the Breach

Post by Jonathan »

This keeps showing up in Best of 2018 lists, but the reviews make it sound like a puzzle game with wargame dressing, as opposed to an actual strategy game.

Anybody played it? Do the levels have a single solution, or multiple solutions?

Got astral chain for switch, but then started playing this game again since I didn't feel like a long gaming session. This game no save scumming! I kind of suck at it, but the game is pretty fun. Kind of annoying you can't backtrack on a move you made my mistake. Lost a pilot that way. Wish this game was on iOS so I could play on the pooper at work.
It takes 43 muscles to frown and 17 to smile, but it doesn't take any to just sit there with a dumb look on your face.

If this game comes out on iOS I will rebuy and play on the potty at work

Finally released for Linux.

I beat it on Easy twice today. First with Silica, then with Gana. I unlocked all four islands.

How do you beat it on Normal?

To answer my own question, each turn, there's more or less a correct set of moves that is better than all available alternatives. There's no single solution, however.
