Reviews
- The game offers a variety of mechanics and graphics for enemies and locations.
- It has a unique energy system that allows for repeated actions at a cost, adding a layer of strategy.
- Some relics provide interesting effects, adding a small element of depth to unit customization.
- Starting with only two heroes makes the early game boring and lacks synergy options.
- The injury system is harsh and feels unfair, as it permanently lowers a unit's HP after dying in battle.
- Graphically, the game is unappealing with repetitive tiles and reskinned units, failing to capture the charm of similar titles.

“If you haven't played it yet, you should definitely dive into Into the Breach for a fun and diverse gameplay experience right from the start.”
“This game features mechanics that are quite similar to others, but it makes a strong effort to stand out.”
“Overall, this game hardly reaches even 1/4 or 1/5 of the gameplay beauty and graphical appeal of Into the Breach. The story is virtually non-existent, even worse than most other roguelikes, and the hour I spent on three runs felt like hitting my head against a wall, which became harder with each bump.”
