The game itself feels well designed and programmed. Everything runs smooth. Sound is great too. You have a lot of tactical decisions to make. One of the best tactical games I played in a while. In a mission the play-style can be compared with XCOM (but ouside of missions it has no base-building or reaseach), Outside of a mission it feels more like FTL, you can select between different next missions and you can upgrade your agents with items or skills.… Expand

   This is one of the best turn based games I've played this decade. Off the top of my head, if I had to name the best designed turn based gamesThis is one of the best turn based games I've played this decade. Off the top of my head, if I had to name the best designed turn based games it'd be Civilization and this. The design, execution, and atmosphere of this game are top notch. The only thing I'd wish for is a slight UI/gameplay optimization for dragging bodies (there's a loophole a dragged body can be stacked on another, leading to unfun gameplay as it's pretty powerful). Also, some characters and loadout options are just inferior to others, making "Random" fun but definitely subpar (which reduces replayability).… Expand

   A solid game all around. The instant death mechanic and the fact that guards never just reset to default patterns after detecting you givesA solid game all around. The instant death mechanic and the fact that guards never just reset to default patterns after detecting you gives the stealth proper meaning. Literally the only downside to this game is the length. 72 hours gives you approx 9 missions based on my own experience, which feels a tad short. Since this game throws itself into the roguelike mix, i would have hoped for a longer experience. This didn't need the length of X-Com or Sword of the Stars: The Pit, but i wish it could have followed on with the ending twist. Luckily it appears to have good replayability.
   
   Also a surprisingly good lunchtime game. Individual mission play length runs about 5-15 minutes based on difficulty rating.… Expand

   Stylish looks, procedural level design, escalating difficulty, plenty of unlocks, and simple but well done voice acting.
   
   If games such as XCOM of FTL are your thing, then this will be well worth a look.… Expand

This choice largely cameUnfortunately, I must go against the masses and say I ended up uninstalling Invisible Inc a week after I bought it. This choice largely came down to personal taste but, then again, that is how we grade most games anyway. Simply put, I found the artwork and atmosphere to be unbearably childish and naive. It's not that I dislike cartoonish style as such. But Invisible Inc was just too "Disney" for me. Together with a lack of a good storyline noted by many other reviewers, the game just did not have the backbone to make it worth my time (making it different from something like Militia which never tries to be anything more than what it is). The strategic mechanics, while fun for the first few missions, failed to make up for complete lack of immersion in the game world. For those who remember the oldies, a similar criticism on style could be leveled against the change that took place between X-Com Terror From the Deep and Apocalypse. Yet the incredibly immersive mechanics of Apocalypse, together with a strong story, helped one look past the catastrophic choice of color scheme (and I admit having completed it countless times on different difficulty settings). The strategic side of Invisible Inc pales in comparison and there is thus little to make up for its lack of style and storyline. Today, I would pick up something like Frozen Synapse over Invisible Inc any day. It is too bad since I really, really wanted to like this one.… Expand
