About Strife: The Expanse

✦ AI summary

Recruit diverse units with unique abilities and battle friends or AI across procedurally generated hex-grid battlefields where elevation and line of sight determine victory. Customize everything from map size and terrain to game modes and difficulty handicaps, with full VR support and replayability through map seeds that let you relive your favorite matches.

Strife: The Expanse is a Hex-Grid style turn based strategy game. Recruit an assortment of units from across the expanse and do battle with friends or AI on procedurally generated battlegrounds! Inspired by tabletop board games from the past decade, Strife: The Expanse aims to provide a replayable and customizable experience.

Features:

  • Utilize seven different Units, each with their own abilities to crush your enemies and lead your team to victory! From defence debuffs to AoE's to passives each unit has its own niche!
  • Map Customization Options such as elevation variance, size, and even the ability to select the map seed! Up to 150x150 and 50+ units are supported at this time. Setup your game for the pacing and play you enjoy! Like a map or want a rematch? Use the same seed and get the same map!
  • Height Matters! Units will take more or less damage depending on their height advantage to other units!
  • Line of sight checks! If your unit can't see an enemy's center of mass then they cant attack them! Use the hills as cover!
  • Free For All & Team Elimination and CTF Gamemodes!
  • Toggleable AI players allowing you to play online Co-op 2v2, setup a offline 1v3 or even just add a fourth to your 3 man free-for-all with your friends! (AI only available for elimination gamemodes.)
  • Adjustable point handicaps: Have a friend who is really bad or really good? Adjust their point handicap to make them sweat! Want to set up a 3v1? Give the lone-wolf some extra points so that your battles are fair and balanced for everyone!
  • Virtual Reality with Oculus Rift: Play with your friends but in VR! Witness the expanse with your own virtual eyes!
  • 50+ Steam Achievements. All of which can be completed against AI! No friends online? No problem!

Developer Values


Strife: The Expanse is developed by one person. Due to this, the game is able to be offered for the current price as I feel that every purchase a customer makes, should aim to give them the best value for their money. $1/hour has always been a metric I have stood by as a consumer and I have aimed to surpass that as a developer.

Honestly the greatest game ever made.

Okay so not many reviews for this one so I thought I'd give it a go. Played on Rift S. Started and played against a bot just to see how it goes...I was pleasantly surprised! It reminds me a lot of a Hero Click type battle game. Granted you can see I didn't play it a ton yet, but it ran well, and the graphics/sounds did their job. I'm curious to see how it goes when I play it with my buddy (hey I bought two copies at that price point!). But so far so good, more to come!

A simple strategy game with 7 different units. You can customise the map (size and hills) and can change how many points each player/AI has to spend on units. There are 3 game modes FFA, Teams and CTF. You can have up to 3 AI or a total of 4 players in multiplayer. The game is good for the price but if you are not new to strategy games you might find this game a bit dull. If you are new to strategy games though i recommend at lest trying it as a default game only takes around 8-10 mins to complete. Overall just try it, you can refund it if you don't like it. I will also add that the developer/developers (idk) have said that they are thinking of new things to add so hopefully there will be some new content at some point.

It's pretty bare bones, and the UI takes some getting used to, but it's pretty decent for the what it is. I wouldn't recommend it at the full $2 price, but it seems to go on sale for pretty cheap (less than $1), fairly often. I only bought the game for a specific achievement (for my profile), but I've enjoyed other games far less to get specific achievements. It does feel like more of a concept game than a full title, but it's still not bad for the price.
