Random War

This game needs game pad/joystick support. Other than that, it's fun!

This game is actually quite competent little roguelite shooter. In the main mode you enter random generated rooms with increasingly dangerous enemies, and every 5th room you get a breather where you will find shop with heals and some upgrades and either take a free item out of 2-3 items or take a roll on a random item. There are main weapons, secondary weapons, and accesoriers, but while main gun can be upgraded in the shop, accessories can only be upgraded by collecting another one of the same type. It gets repetitive quickly, but you will get around 3h out of it np, more if you want all the archivements. Since the game is very cheap, its worth buying just to check it out.

This game is very close to being a hidden gem. I had a blast playing it. It’s a simple arena tank shooter that’s easy to pick up and put down. I purchased it specifically to play on my Steam Deck for when I have 10 minutes to spare. I genuinely loved this game and recommend it if you’re looking for a fun little tank game to play or if you’re willing to spend $1. However, there are some factors that prevent me from recommending it to everyone. First, the controls. I knew it wasn’t “Verified” for the Steam Deck, but it still works perfectly. The controls using the mouse pads on the Deck are great. The only thing preventing it from being fully controller compatible and being better for the Deck is the aiming indicator, you can move it freely. If the aiming indicator were fixed a few inches from your tank while using a controller, it would be ideal for controller support. However, on the Deck, it tends to launch into a corner when using the joystick, leaving only the track pads as a good option for aiming precisely. There’s a significant issue even if the aim indicator was locked when using a controller. many weapons shoot at the ground where you aim, rather than in the direction…

A great casual game. It's varied enough to keep me entertained.

A great little isometric twin-stick shooter. I found that the 'Robotron 2084' style 4 way movement control option transformed the gaming experience and made it far more enjoyable and playable than the default 'Asteroids' style rotate and thrust movement scheme. The voxel style graphics are really well executed and give the game a distinctive look & feel and the different adversaries all have their own quirky strengths and weaknesses. A little more guidance on the different weapon systems would be a welcome addition. Only other minor point is that the 'pricing' for items in between rounds (I've mostly played the 'surround' game mode so not sure if it affects the other game mode) is like an out of control Bull Market i.e. one round a repair 'costs' 60 points but if you badly need a repair in the following round, the pricing has doubled! Overall, an original offering and excellent value for money - a big thumbs up.

Honestly this game is fun for being under a single us dollar. I would totally suggest this to anyone who likes rougelike games a simple pick it up and play game. Its not too hard and not too easy.
