About Katja's Abyss: Tactics

The Story



"Hey, I'm Katja."

"So you're the captain they just promoted at Echo Mining Corp, yeah? Listen, you've got the task of leading our crew of brave miners and engineers into the dangerous caves of Montmane. Your goal is to collect potent runoff from volatile Nodes of energy in the walls.

This mountain has a mysterious history, though, and you'll be pivotal in my research. Creatures native to the caves have been warped by the powerful energy in them, so watch your back. For my sake, I'm here to study them!"

Gameplay


Scan the walls to find safe spots to dig with mining units.
Build combat units to attack and defend against monsters that lurk in the caves.
Collect energy from the cave walls to build new units and complete the level.
Make tactical use of each unit's unique abilities and modification options.

Katja's Abyss: Tactics has Campaign and Infinite modes. In Campaign Mode, there are 8 sequential levels with a connecting story. Infinite Mode tests your skills in Normal and Deadly difficulties. See how deep you can get!

In the caves, you'll find Artifacts while digging or fighting monsters. Open the extras menu to read more about these Artifacts and learn about the ancient people whose ruins are left behind in these caves!

✦ AI summary

Players appreciate the novel combination of minesweeper and tactics gameplay, with praise for its well-executed mechanics, lovely visuals, and affordable price point. Common complaints center on the relatively short campaign, slow pacing, unit collision mechanics that feel tedious rather than strategic, and limited endgame content beyond the main eight stages and infinite mode.

Recommended Jan 7, 2024
Minesweeper and tactics games are my two favorite things in life. Not only does this game combine the two, but it does it well, feels like this games was made for me. My biggest complaint is that allies cannot pass through each other - doesn't really add that much for strategy just adds a level of tediousness. Also, I wish it had achievements. Otherwise it's a fantastic game.

Very well made game using the O.H.RPG.C.E. ( : Building a game around minesweeper is a novel concept. As the title suggests, it is more tactics than minesweeper, though. Wish it was a bit faster paced. There is a really cool hidden shopkeeper in the game with special unlocks like hats for your tanks. I can't stress enough what a cool dude this shopkeeper is. Finished the main campaign, 8 stages. There is an infinite mode as well. Purchased the game on itch.io, received a steam key.

Love this game as someone who has a superiority complex from knowing how to play minesweeper. Combined with strategy it does take me down a peg as I am not good with resource management or thinking things through. Overall very fun and addicting. And the visuals are so lovely.
