“Honestly, more of the same would have been better. I appreciate the attempt to innovate but the first game was perfect. All they had to do was make more of that. Unfortunately, encounters are often designed around those…”

“Steamworld Heist I is absolutely incredible. It has great strategy, characters with personality, an incredible art style, and terrific music. This game feels like a step back in literally every single way. The ship…”

“I'll start by saying that I prefer the simplicity and streamlined gameplay of Heist 1. There is a certain amount of time wasting in Heist 2 going between missions, crew lockouts, career switching, however it ultimately…”
