    The game shows too quickly what it has to offer and struggles to infuse the feeling of progression essential in this type of register, due to a slightly unbalanced structure.

    Othercide has its moments but its core gameplay is so repetitive that, even with its turn-pushing twist, you’ll have to fight the grind to get any fun out of it. Its art style may be beautiful, but it doesn’t make playing the game any more enjoyable.

In Othercide, you control an army of women who are created, fully-formed, from a birthing pool, assigned one of four classes, and marched out onto an isometric battlefield to battle an army of evil doctors. However before we dive deeper in to the game what happened to the colors we know such as orange, purple, yellow and pink? Inspite the fact that game has a great story line and for a strategy game it's action full looking at a screen that's full black might give you some headaches. The combat system itself is a pleasing puzzle, mostly reliant on manipulating the initiative tracker that is a constant presence along the bottom of the screen.I actually don't personally seek out strategy games- especially turn-based ones, but some how I found myself playing Othercide for hours. I’d suggest giving it a go yourself as well on your Xbox One console.… Full Review »
