Robot Space Pirates and Tactics

Now is the perfect time to grab SteamWorld Heist while it’s on sale

The excellent turn-based strategy game SteamWorld Heist is current on sale for £4.99 / $4.99, down from its usual £9.99 / $9.99.

The game is set in the same universe as SteamWorld Dig but plays quite differently. While Dig is a mining game about gathering resources, Heist is a 2D tactical turn-based strategy game, similar to XCOM.

You have your party of robot space pirates which you take through an enemy ship to find all of its treasures. The touch controls when firing your guns are fine-tuned for mobile and is satisfying when you successfully ricochet bullets off the walls.

The game also has some nice RPG mechanics thrown in for good measure. There are classes, weapons and abilities that help you customise your characters so you can make them your own.
