    A great game that may surprise fans of the previous game, but in a good way. The style and design of the world, characters and combat is fantastic. The turn-based combat is surprisingly fluid and fast-paced and there’s plenty of upgrades and variations to play with.

    I already knew i would love this game before i even brought it. Its fun turn based strategy, easy to learn but challenging. I heard its 15-20I already knew i would love this game before i even brought it. Its fun turn based strategy, easy to learn but challenging. I heard its 15-20 hours. Im already 2 hours in and i can't stop playing. Easy 10 out of 10 for me. The only thing im pissed off about is there is no cross save with ps4 to vita.… Full Review »

    I kinda dislike turn based bounce bullet games... found them kinda dumb :(
    BUT WHY AM ADDICTED TO THIS GAME
    I just got it thinking it was    I kinda dislike turn based bounce bullet games... found them kinda dumb :(
    BUT WHY AM ADDICTED TO THIS GAME
    I just got it thinking it was like the previous steamworld dig games (which I loved) and was angry when I found it was a bounce bullet turn based thing, almost deleted it... but then I played the first level, then the second, then I downloaded it to my Vita (you get that included in the ps4 game) and now I cant put it down Im around 20 levels now and still going strong. I even put down Monster hunter world to end this one first.
    Dont know if its the mechanics, the colorful characters, the power ups, the simple map style (you jump from spaceship to spaceship, no loading times at all)
    Those guys really made me want to play steamworld defense tower game now and I cant get it nowhere since its for Nintendo DS.
    Truly a little gem all in all.
    Give it a try, you wont let it down until you finish it.    … Full Review »
