| + Great theme, animation
+ Finally, a match 3 game that does away with that awful "move one piece, but ONLY if it immediately scores a match!" mechanic. If you can't beat them, at least do away with the worst aspect. - Forget beating the last boss, I can't even reach him! Day 6 was my record. I can't see how my matching fucked it up rather than being fucked by the insanely swingy gem placement. You can get either a lone 3 match every turn, or be set up for a triple 10 match! - Fuck repair gems. They're nearly useless yet they always seem to be the most plentiful. You almost never have a system destroyed before your hull explodes and you die. Maybe this changes once I've grinded all the tiny max health upgrades? Even then you'd be better off with energy gems to boost defense so you don't take the damage in the first place. The most useful upgrade in the game would be turning repair gems into something else, yet I've only seen upgrades that turn other gems into repair! - Fuck scrap gems. Repairing is so goddamn expensive that the scrap you get from a scrap gem match will never equal the cost of repairing the extra damage you take from not making a useful match. - I didn't see much point in the targeted fire for the same reason repair gems are useless: by the time you've destroyed a system, the enemy is almost dead anyway and he can just repair the system in a single turn anyway. - The RNG for blueprint loot is insane. It's not like FTL where everything was theoretically balanced by cost and energy requirements. The rare blueprints are flat out MUCH better version of the common version. It almost seems like if you haven't gotten a decent rare by day 4, don't bother and just restart. - A TWELVE MATCH REPAIR GEM LINE AND NOT A SINGLE AMMO OR ENERGY MATCH FOR THE THIRD TURN IN A ROW ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME? - The "fuck you" spread of the missions is also insane. You have to avoid "survive x turns" missions like the fucking plague since they cripple you with repair costs. The "match X crates" missions are mana from heaven gimmes that you always want since you can zip right through them with minimal damage. The genre badly needs an entry free from a psycho RNG. Maybe I'll try Convoy? |
