A very tactical little game 0
Into the Breach it's a really well done game, it accomplishes a very clever try on a type of puzzle-strategic gameplay.You have a squad of three mechs, and you place them on a 8x8 board where you have to fight for survival and defend the civilization, which are you source of energy.
