It has been discounted 80 times in the 13 years tracked here. The median cut across all of them is 75 percent, about 6 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended 11 days ago.
It is pricier than 92 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 76 percent. Chaos Reborn ($9.99, scores 32) outscores it, and so does Frozen Synapse ($24.99, scores 59). Both sit among its closest neighbours.

What players say

Classic turn-based-strategy similar to oldschool games like Battle Isle and History Line. Not easy at all but never unfair.
The game indeed looks nice. But once the first impression fades away, you realize that it plays worse than Battle Isle 1 or Battalion: Nemesis or even Advanced Strategic Command (these games are either significantly less expensive or even free), The biggest downside of this game for me is that the UI is sluggish and not as assistive as it could be. As you play the game, you realize that it takes quite long, because...
