Breach & Clear, developed by Mighty Rabbit Studios and published by Gun Interactive, is a tactical strategy game that translates the methodical intensity of close-quarters combat into a thoughtful, turn-based format. It’s a title that bridges the gap between tactical simulation and accessible strategy, allowing players to command a squad of elite special operations soldiers in missions that demand precision, planning, and adaptability. Originally released on mobile platforms before being ported to PC and consoles, the game carries both the strengths and limitations of that origin. Despite its relatively modest production values, Breach & Clear captures a style of military gameplay rarely seen outside of complex simulation titles, focusing not on reflexes but on deliberate decision-making and the satisfaction of seeing a perfectly executed plan unfold. At its core, Breach & Clear revolves around the process implied by its title: breaching a room or building and clearing it of hostile forces. Each mission begins with a planning phase where the player chooses entry points, assigns routes, and issues specific commands to a four-man squad. Once orders are confirmed, the phase plays out in simultaneous real-time execution, with both player and enemy actions unfolding together. This hybrid of turn-based planning and real-time outcome gives each encounter an unpredictable edge. The system rewards foresight and punishes impatience—anticipating where enemies might move, which corners to cover, or when to use grenades becomes essential. The result is a type of tactical gameplay that feels both cerebral and tense, evoking the spirit of Rainbow Six and SWAT while presenting it through a slower, more analytical lens. When everything comes together and a room is cleared flawlessly, the sense of accomplishment is palpable. One of the game’s defining strengths lies in its squad management and customization systems. Between missions, players can upgrade soldiers, unlock perks, and fine-tune equipment to create specialized team compositions. Operators can belong to different real-world units, each with unique traits and visual identity—from the U.S. Army Rangers to the British SAS—and every operative can be outfitted with personalized gear, weapon attachments, and camouflage patterns. These layers of customization not only add depth but also foster a sense of attachment to the squad. Watching a carefully leveled team grow more efficient and lethal across missions is a quiet pleasure that balances the otherwise repetitive flow of combat. Breach & Clear offers just enough strategic variety through these systems to maintain engagement over longer sessions, even as the mission objectives themselves tend to repeat. Despite its admirable ambition, the game’s mobile heritage is difficult to ignore. The interface design feels clearly optimized for touch controls, making the PC version occasionally clunky to navigate. Camera control and selection inputs can be awkward, and the visual layout lacks the polish expected of native PC strategy titles. The environments, while clean and functional, are simple and utilitarian, consisting mostly of office complexes, warehouses, and compounds that repeat architectural patterns. Animation quality is serviceable but stiff, and the visual effects—muzzle flashes, explosions, and breaching charges—lack the cinematic weight that could have elevated the experience. These visual limitations, however, do not fully undermine the atmosphere. The subdued presentation suits the game’s methodical tone, and the subtle soundtrack combined with sparse but sharp sound effects lends a professional, almost tactical calm to each mission. Where Breach & Clear stumbles most noticeably is in its variety. The core mechanics are strong, but the game leans heavily on them without enough escalation or narrative drive to sustain long-term engagement. Enemy AI is functional but predictable; once players understand its patterns, most encounters can be approached with similar strategies. Mission structure rarely evolves beyond variations of “eliminate all hostiles” or “defuse the bomb,” and while the environments span different global locations, they seldom feel meaningfully distinct in gameplay terms. The absence of a proper story or overarching campaign leaves the experience feeling modular, like a collection of training exercises rather than a unified military operation. For players who enjoy pure tactical problem-solving, this minimalist approach works fine, but those seeking emotional investment or narrative tension will likely find the repetition dulling. Still, there is an underlying charm to Breach & Clear’s disciplined design philosophy. It is a game built around efficiency and precision rather than spectacle, and when approached as a digital sandbox for tactical thinking, it succeeds. Each mission becomes a puzzle to be solved through coordination, anticipation, and incremental improvement. Even though the presentation may be simple, the tension that arises from watching your carefully laid plans play out in uncertain real-time is deeply satisfying. The feedback loop—plan, execute, analyze, improve—is rewarding in a quiet, strategic way. As soldiers grow in skill and missions unfold more smoothly, the player feels the same gratification that comes from mastering a system through intelligence rather than reflexes. Breach & Clear’s legacy is that of a restrained but well-constructed tactical experiment. It lacks the polish and narrative flair of larger-budget strategy titles, yet it achieves something they often miss: a sense of procedural realism and consequence. Every command matters, every misstep carries risk, and success depends entirely on careful foresight. The game’s limited scope and minimalist presentation prevent it from achieving greatness, but it still offers a uniquely methodical take on modern tactical combat. For fans of strategic planning and military operations, Breach & Clear provides a focused, cerebral experience that rewards patience and precision—a small but noteworthy entry in the lineage of squad-based strategy games.

Overall I think it is a decent strategy for those who like games based on playing in turns. Yes graphic of the game is questionable, physics and selections could be strange for today standards with somehow repetitive patters together with a messy marketplace but once you get logic of how the things are working it could become quite fun. You can equip each solder with weapon of choice buy additional equipment and grow their experience through the levels. As someone already mentioned, game have feeling like being unfinished which I totally agree but still it is playable. Recommend if you get it on discount and play it occasionally.

I'm super surprised this game isn't more famous. I started playing it on mobile, but it wasn't supported after a while and found it here again. It's a turn based shooter that let's you plan out how you will best take out terrorists as you clear compounds. You can train various strengths on your team and name each of the players. Very fun, but seriously, it's more of a mobile game than PC...

This game has no right being as good as it is. It is a man game. It is pure therapy. When you set up the plan just right and clear almost the whole building in 1 round getting the achievement for over 6 kills? God, the feels good. This game makes me wish there were more round-planner games like this, instead of turn-based. It's so much more satisfying to see everything happen at the same time. Remember how a lot of early 2000s military shooters utilized money for progression? This game does that too! It's rather nostalgic, you earn money with each mission and then you spend it on gear to equip your whole squad - new guns, attachments, armor/camo/helmets, breaching tools, even UAV (if you can afford it). I love it. It also adds stats with leveling to each squad member (accuracy, speed, evasion, health, reaction etc.), which make the perma-death mode so much more interesting, definitely recommend trying that.
