Backs Kind of game, About, Story, Tension and danger, Fighting, Unlocks and progress, Planning ahead, Getting better.

• Kind of game: Review of 2018-04-11 says local and online co-op split the party so each player controls up to three units.
• About: The review describes a farmer hero, a peaceful planet thrown into turmoil by a giant space bear and a band of recruited misfits.
• Story: The review describes a plot and a bear who narrates your adventures and mocks you.
• Tension and danger: Permadeath and an insane difficulty are optional, and the review advises against them on a first run.
• Fighting: The review describes grid battles with nets and cages for capturing enemies.
• Unlocks and progress: Wins give gold and gear, actions give XP, and you can level up in the middle of a fight.
• Planning ahead: The review says you only direct where units go and the game handles targeting, which can feel too simple. Capturing the strongest enemy takes some planning.
• Getting better: The review calls the approach simplified for a tactics game, so there is little skill to learn.

• Story: The review describes a farmer on a quest tied to a giant space bear, played for laughs.
• Planning ahead: The review says you move a unit to a spot and the computer picks the action and target. Loadouts and objectives keep fights varied.
• Getting better: The review found the automated combat a little too simple at first.
