Terrashift Tactics is inspired by the classic turn based strategy genre but they have look for their own twist. Now this game is not all about just your units or their abilities it is also about the terrain you have battle on.
The battle ground can be changed, damaged and controlled for extra strategic advantages and disadvantages.
The terrian also has a range of different elements which you can use in your battles, they range from Fire, water, ice, lava, electric, acid and more.
So what can you do?
- Personalise your own characters, with their own abilities weapons, equipment and implants that change their stats and role in your squad you can even name them.
- Unlock new weapons, equipment, implants, abilities, to try different tactics on your opponent.
- Face the AI (and his friends) in a custom skirmish match.
- Enter the competitive world of online and face other challengers of different skill levels.
- Save, share and watch your past games with either the AI or other people online.
- Ranked and unranked leader boards, master your tactics and climb above anyone else!
The game has a very XCOM feel to it and in Alpha it looks to have potential, a turn based strategy with a slightly different terrain system which can make for some interesting battles.
