    I wish all turn based strategy games could have interfaces this good. Keeps things simple in a world where turn based strategy games are getting way too complicated. Finally somebody made a Steampunk game with visuals that didn’t make me say “yuk”. Runs great on Vita.

    SteamWorld Heist is excellent. It's designed so you spend very little time in menu screens, but gives you characters which play very differently and offer you plenty of choices in strategy. The former, and in-mission autosaves, make the game perfect for portable play.

    It's animated very well, has good, humorous dialogues that make its characters likable, and a lot of polish overall.

    I would go so far as to say this is one of the best turn based strategy games ever made. The action is pronounced, the dialogue is witty, and the lite rogue mechanics with deep gameplay are all beautifully made to be played and replayed. I suggest elite difficulty - the advances you make are really rewarding at that setting.

    Un juego de estrategia simplón y entretenido a partes iguales, divertido desde el minuto 1 con un tono hilarante y despreocupado, imprescindible si te gustan los juegos de estrategia

    I loved being able play the game's short missions on the go, I loved how replayable the levels were with their 3-star ratings, I loved seeing the aesthetic of the original expanded in a whole new way. In short: I loved SteamWorld Heist.

    Steamworld Heist is a package full of brightness: addictive gameplay, superb presentation, hours of strategic action, fun characters and a complete space adventure. Now the game looks better than ever on HD platforms and PS Vita.

    SteamWorld Heist is one of the most memorable experiences I have had on the Vita to date. It is a perfectly portable tactical turn based adventure which will see you return again and again to nab just one more hat or give that particularly tough challenge mission another go. It is a shining example of what makes handheld gaming great!
