Review: Highwater has some interesting ideas, but the game behind them is a little too insubstantial to get fully invested

Gareth BradingMarch 27, 2024March 27, 202409 mins

Highwater has some good writing and atmosphere, but the light exploration and turn-based battles don’t feel particularly engaging.

Phantom Doctrine might be hard to declassify, but it’s worth investigating    

Eduardo ReboucasAugust 22, 2018September 9, 2020016 mins

The Bureau: XCOM Declassified Review
