    What ties Missile Command Delta together is the overall mystery and with that, the game becomes greater than the sum of its parts. The turn-based Missile Command adaptation wouldn’t stand strong by itself, but combining that with the bunker exploration, endearing characters, and generally strong writing makes a fun adventure that will make you consider an arcade classic in a new light.

    Missile Command Delta is a cool spin on an all-time classic, and its turn-based take on total annihilation is both fitting and enjoyable. It’s a game I would lightly recommend to puzzle fans and those who fondly remember Missile Command, but perhaps not on the Nintendo Switch. The technical issues are rather severe when they occur, to the point that it might make some players nauseous. It would be nice to see this get a patch to improve performance, particularly on the Nintendo Switch 2.

    Missile Command Delta is an unfortunate misfire from Atari. I want to love it; heck, I do love the actual turn-based strategy gameplay found within the various terminals. The problem is that it's surrounded by dull explorative sections and a narrative that just doesn't resonate. There's a really solid foundation here, and I'd love to see Atari explore Delta's mechanics more in the future, but a bit more thought is required in how such an intriguing concept is delivered to the player.
