As a hardcore fan of tactical turn-based strategies, I couldn't wait to try Skygard Arena. While the campaign has a nice story and different challenges, I found myself frustrated with the Arena mode. To really enjoy this game, you must know what to expect.
While the game is sometimes compared to XCOM, it's not even close to that experience. Skygard Arena actually has more similarities with Fae Tactics or Into The Breach and even Overwatch (regarding unique characters). The good news is that the game is very tactical and actually more complex than it seems at first. The game gives you a chance to win some at the start, but very quickly shows you who's the boss if you're not careful.
