Frozen Synapse Review

Agreed. Been having lots of fun playing this game since it came out. Be sure to read their news updates and faqs for getting your friend key setup - can be a bit tricky.
Been playing the game a bit myself, though I've yet to have spent as much time with it as I'd like.
Brilliant little game, I absolutely love it. Intuitive to control and yet also incredibly deep. I've absolutely no doubt this is one of those games that's going to gather a strong following that will continue to support it for many years to come. I also wouldn't be terribly surprised if there are even a few appearances in tournaments and the like, as it's perfectly suited to competitive play.
Damned good game.

This game is completely mind blowingly brilliant. I got this day one with the buy one get a copy free for friend sale. It took me like two days to beat that first level, but now I do pretty well. Though I regularly get trounced in multiplayer. I'll get it eventually, but this game is a true challenge, and I love every second of it.
This is an excellent game, been playing since beta and have loved every second of it. Follow this review, people. You should buy it.
Because games that require less brain utilization sell better. It's all in the numbers, sadly.Tycho 333 said:
This game is 21st Century Chess as it employs the exact same dynamic, only including ranged attacks as well. I await when you are able to play with multiple floors in a scenario. Unless that also is featured in the game?
so, i know it's kinda a long shot, and quite possibly in poor taste, but if anyone's got an extra free copy, i'd be forever grateful.
if it's any compensation (it's not) i'd be willing to trade my free copy of red faction battlegrounds for the 360

Saw this one on Steam a while back, and while gameplay sounds appealing, the visual aesthetic is a complete turn-off.
You just HAD to put that video in there, didn't you?Slycne said:
That's a fantastic question!The_root_of_all_evil said:
I notice you guys aren't putting up the videos of the ones where I WON!
Though admittedly that didn't happen as often...
Whatever.
Good review, at least! It's fantastic game!
IMO give it a miss, its alright but its really thin, pretty much what you see in the screenshots, in any one screenshot for that matter is all you get. A simple square level, with generic troops of which there are like 4 types, engaging in simplistic turn based combat for x number of turns. There is no management, no leveling up, no continuation.... Basically there is no demo because there is no way to demo it without practically giving the player the whole game (minus story).Kopikatsu said:
Its like chess except you have tron look-alike soldiers instead of pieces and the turns are simultaneous.
I dont like it much and i'm a big tactical fan, x-com is one of my favourite games of all time.
Haha, believe it or not, I held onto that thing for like two and a half weeks. But I finally found someone to give it to, sorry. If I had it, I would totally give it to you though. It's like a good book, you want as many people to read it as possible.Kopikatsu said:
