    Addictive and nicely done turn-based mobile strategy. Graphics are simply stunning (and don't take up much space). Also, you don't really have to pay here, stuff you need can be easily farmed on side-missions, which is a huge plus for a freebie. And nopes, it's not a copy of xcom, something really different so I'd recommend giving it a go if you fancy good old turn-based strategy games.

    Great mobile strategy! Easy to learn, lots of possibilities, very nice graphics. And, one of my favourite things - you can easily beat a contract or two, while going to work in the metro. The length of missions is almost perfect.

    Exellent adaptation of classic tactical turn-based gameplay for mobile platforms. Combat system is rather complex but in the same time battles are quick and intense.

    Wished I had not played this game. Looks nice, you like it. Then kills off your entire squad and demands money for a revival. Missions are initially easy. Bamm. Not so much any more! And you are extremely limited in research (requires levels you dont have and ressources you must buy)

    If you’re willing to play it in small doses over a very long period of time, with either a lot of in-app purchases or a long grind, there’s absolutely a game worth playing here.

    A good game with good timing is hard to refuse. And X-Mercs is a fun bit of strategy that managed to come along when I wanted it most.

    X-Mercs is a good X-Com clone that tries to stand on its own with excellent graphics and smooth gameplay but lacks a real personality. Its in-app structure is also painful.
