I just realized there's a much simpler way to review Thea: The Awakening. by Mischief Maker 05/17/2017, 9:53am PDT
It's a fantasy X-Com!

The combat is a battle card game instead of isometric tactics , but the rest of the game is X-Com Geoscape to a T.

Scavenging supplies, climbing the tech tree, building up your base, chasing down harassment stacks, and facing an asymmetrical enemy who ramps up the pressure over time.

Much simpler explanation.
