Exactly what it says on the title. The game looks rough, seeing how slow it plays even with speed up animations, and the writing and art style could be better. Worse, it uses a card system. Nevertheless, I tried the demo and it seemed fun, and it's quite long to boot.

My team has the sexiest and deadliest waifus you can recruit.
I gave it a whirl today - it's fun! Any parallels with AW are relatively distant, I'd say, as this is a very much an assymetric game, with the AI behaving in a semi-deterministic way (as in, by default the monsters try to approach and attack the closest structure, but they can randomly take any of the shortest paths they have to it). Into the Breach would be a closer comparison, methinks. The art style is horrendous by design, although I couldn't help but enjoy the live action faux news shows. The card system is not really a card system in that you don't build decks - each level has a predefined pool of positive and negative events that you and AI draw from, it's just that those events are presented as cards.

Will probably form an opinion after playing a few more hours. The game is at least good enough to warrant this.
