    • “A strong gameplay mechanic that rewards practice and keeps players on their toes.”
    • “The game's mechanics do get repetitive after a while as what you do in the beginning stages is practically the same as when you advance.”

  • music
    10 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game is generally atmospheric and sets a fitting tone, especially with its dark ambient and space-themed sounds. However, many users find the tracks repetitive, noting short loops and abrupt restarts that detract from the experience. Improvements in music variety and longer loops would enhance the overall immersion.

    • “Atmospheric dark ambient space music and sound of rusted metal gives good atmosphere.”
    • “Very atmospheric with great music and captures the tense situation.”
    • “Better graphics and music than the original Templar Assault.”
    • “For €10, the music shouldn't be so repetitive or loop so abruptly; it's really jarring, and the visuals aren't great either.”
    • “Pros: fun and solid gameplay mechanics generally (most important), high customizability, good UI, easy respecs, decent sound effects. Cons: repetitive boring music, the talent system holds back customizability, annoying to directly compare options, a lot of talents and equipment are too similar to each other, the tactical point hold system is kinda meh because it takes too long for reinforcements to rejoin with main party. Overall a solid game though 8/10.”
    • “My only gripe would be the music - sounds like the tracks are all on a 10-second loop.”
