Critic Reviews
Massive Chalice Review
Massive Chalice's aggressive tactical combat would be stronger without so many opportunities to lose due to bad luck.

Massive Chalice really has a unique and interesting premise and even with the lackluster combat it's a lot of fun to play. The management of bloodlines and Keeps, the necessity to keep breeding different types of units to keep your army balanced, and a wide array of power-ups you can research make each playthrough feel different.

Massive Chalice is lots of fun and highly addictive. Yes a lot of the best things about it come from it being highly influenced by XCOM: Enemy Unknown, but it not only captures a lot of the spirit of our Game of the Year 2012 but Double Fine also manages to provide their own unique spin on it with the Game of Thrones-style setup. Yes it has a few minor problems, most notably not providing a reason to care for any of the people under your command and some fairly unimaginative combat area design, but it remains a damn fun game for the 15-20 hours it took me to finish it and I’ll probably go back and play some more. Well done Double Fine, another good game to add to the roster.
