Its the best version of a modern day chess I've ever seen. I tried every other title which claimed to be the "ultimate turned based strategy game"and probably gave up midway through 2013 accepting this as the best since I have so many of my friends loving this game too. Its very well balanced with its array of 6 teams: the teams are very diverse with a unique theme that really distinguishes itself, each with beautifully animated powers and abilities yet, the winning ratio for the teams is the same. If you some competitive friends who like turn based strategy, it does not get better than this. Introduced this game to about 20 of my friends throughout 2012 and 2013, and we've all been playing ever since. Challenge me if your interested in learning the ropes: sevenstyx. Prevents me from getting any work done for almost two and a half years lol come to think of it this game is awful.… Expand

It is a small turn based strategy game with a lot of depth and really awesome presentation. I'm having sooooo much fun with it. For the $5 price tag, it is well worth it. DLC teams are also very worth it. If you like turn based strategy games, you will love this. Get it now!… Expand

   It's a free iOS game that they want you to pay $5 for on PC. It's a pretty scummy business practice that I can't say I'm a fan of. For the 5$It's a free iOS game that they want you to pay $5 for on PC. It's a pretty scummy business practice that I can't say I'm a fan of. For the 5$ you get the game, one basic team, and the PC exclusive TF2 team. They also are selling 4 other teams for 4-5 dollars each - the same price as the game. The gameplay is solid - it's turn based strategy where you move your individual units across a board in the attempt to either kill all enemy units or destroy their crystals. It's kinda fun but playing it ends up being a total chore. The servers for the game are the most unstable servers I've ever come across in a game. They are constantly crashing and you may find yourself unable to play for weeks at a time. After being burned so long by losing connection and thus losing progress of your games, I can only rate this game so high.… Expand

When playing multiplayer, games can take weeksThis game was originally made for iOS and thus able to play against users from both iOS/Steam. When playing multiplayer, games can take weeks (or months I suppose! I stopped playing, but I can imagine so). This is the nature of this chess-like cross platform game; it is excruciating! The lack of a single player campaign, or even a simple custom game mode vs AI with varying difficulty, would have easily deserved your time and money. However, personally, I find this game unplayable due to long wait times between turns. Some people recommended playing several dozen games simultaneously , thus always "having something to do", but that's just not my style. I'd prefer to concentrate on one intense battle with immediate input/response/outcome.… Expand

It doesn't auto-fit to the size of your screen, so this means that if your monitor isn't big enough, a big portion of the game will be cut off. This makes for a poor gaming experience.

I should have taken the time to read more reviews but figured I'd trust the decent metascore of 75. I see people giving this 8-10 points and that could only mean a few things: you are high off your ass and really bad at math; you just crawled out of a cave where you have been living for the past 20 years; or you are high off your ass from smoking guano in the cave where you have been living for the past 20 years.… Expand
