Space Hulk: Tactics

I feel like fans of tile-based tactical games and fans of Warhammer 40K will enjoy this entry into the series. With visually appealing designs, Cyanide Studios did a wonderful job with bringing the dark atmosphere of the Blood Angels vs Genestealers to life. Topped up with fairly decent voice work, a solid game design, good writing and a plethora of things to do, Space Hulk: Tactics has got a lot of things right. With working out a few kinks, and hopefully a more active online presence, you’ll certainly be getting your monies worth for this title.

Tatics is a good turn-based strategy game Warhammer fans will love. It could've used a campaign with more focus on the narrative to keep us more engaged, though.

Be warned: you will need to invest a lot of time into each match but each win you can truly feel, while each loss hits you right in the gut. Fans of Space Hulk and Warhammer 40k alike should find themselves fully at home in the fresh take on the series.

It would be perfect turn based stratdgy and the best version of Space Hulk. But horrible AI and a swarm of bugs drag this space marine down.

The new addition to the Space Hulk franchise is doing justice to the name it carries, with well designed campaigns, decent presentation and addictive gameplay. On the downside, the implementation of the Cards nearly breaks the game, making it repetitive and very slow.

If this is your first go at Space Hulk it is an excellent place to start but you have to be willing to learn to walk again as it takes no prisoners.

True to the world of Warhammer 40.000, Space Hulk: Tactics is a cool tactical-RPG but it never surprised us, because of its many very classical mechanics.

Problems with the game’s performance and lackluster AI, along with matchmaking issues which I’ve personally experienced mar an otherwise promising outing. In the grim darkness of the far future, there is only war and a Tyra-need to polish Space Hulk: Tactics further.

Space Hulk: Tactics is an intelligent strategy game that offers deep and satisfying mechanics. The Warhammer 40.000 universe is well represented and the atmosphere is a beautiful love letter to every Warhammer's fan in the the world. Despite this, the game has some annoying bugs and frustrating loading times.

Way more interesting than it's cousin Space Hulk: Deathwing, Space Hulk Tactics stays true to the mechanics of the board game while peppering it with a cleaver system of cards. Overall it's still a niche game made on a budget, but it performs as required.

Space Hulk: Tactics is perhaps the only game inspired by Games Workshop tabletop to reproduce the reference material in a rather faithful and complete way.
