It's not a terrible game. It's biggest letdown are the "skill levels." They're just boring they're simple .5 to 1 more of something it does, like deal damage or disarm. It would've been cooler if it unlocked more ways to team up with each other, or different ways to use the ability, like instead of the speedsters dash kick being a straight line you can curve/bend it. Or, the speedsters dash through stuff swaps enemy placement of everyone you pass through. Stuff like that would've been fun. And the objective system having skill level resources tied to it is annoying. You end up doing the same missions over and over and over until you do it just right. And a lot of them seem to be balanced with the player having gotten a few skill ups and levels they shouldn't have at the time the mission took place. But that may be because of how the game trickles heroes to the roster and they all start at level 1, so the wanted you to go back and do them to level them up. I don't know. And all of the damage is low, you're meant to knock enemies around, similar to Midnight Suns, but it's not as satisfying in this game. Like, landing a good chain lighting should give you a little jolt/rush, but it hits for 1 damage, so it feels meh, unless you hit explosives. So far the game isn't bad, but it's not great. At the very least the characters are interesting and diverse. The concept is great though. Those skill levels could use some work though, they should feel more impactful. I'm glad I got it on sale. The game is only 30 hours long, and I struggled on a few of the missions.

This game deserves more than mixed reviews! It's a solid entry for the grid base SRPG roster. The whole claim that the game is puzzle based is simply false. Yes, the all in one feature is stupid, and you should turn it off in the options. Some missions are increadilby hard (don't like a challange? Play it on easy, you wuss) but really fun. It feels nearly impossible in some of the harder missions to hit the - all in one- feature. Especially without save scumming. Which is not gameplay any one aspires for, right? Story - Mediocre, but solid enough. Voice acting - for the most part excellent. Music - Does its job. Controlls - Made for mouse and keyboard, but worked okay-ish on the steam deck. Charcters - Design is fine, some better than others. Equally goes for their abilites. Some heroes are really fun, others feels just decent. HUGE plus for the team up abilities! It offers that little extra spice and can be the difference between winning and losing! My biggest complaint: The level up upgrades can sometimes feel underwhelming. We want new cool stuff, not stat boosts. Some heroes have much more intresting upgrades while others just get increased range. Still a fully upgraded hero feels signitically more powerful. Took me 20 hours to playthrough with very little gridning. A solid 7/10.

Capes is the rare superhero game that actually understands tactics, which already puts it ahead of half the genre. The turn-based combat is properly smart. This isn’t a “click ability, win fight” situation—you need to think, plan, reposition, and then rethink when everything goes wrong anyway. The real fun is in the team-ups, where combining heroes at the right moment turns a desperate situation into a glorious, villain-shaped mess. When it works, you feel clever. When it doesn’t, it’s absolutely your fault. The story drops you into a brand-new superhero universe and, mercifully, doesn’t act like you’ve been reading the lore wiki for ten years. It’s fun, sharp, and refreshingly self-aware, with interesting dialogue. Voice acting is strong across the board, giving the heroes real personality rather than the usual “generic brave voice #3.” These characters feel like people who argue, joke, and occasionally make very bad decisions—exactly what you want from a superhero team. Overall, Capes is tactical, challenging, and genuinely funny. It respects your intelligence, rewards clever play, and manages to be entertaining without taking itself too seriously. A smart strategy game in a cape, and one that actually earns it.

I enjoyed the gameplay, but the story or the interaction between the characters could've been better. An elderly superhero, who gives the younger generation of superheroes a base or shelter, but these younger ones continuously disobey him. He tells them not to go do things, and they keep on going out to do it. One would think he would've been respected as someone who is more experienced and live in this world of superheroes and villains longer. But no. Anyhow, the game is still fun!

Lots of fun if you *know* you enjoy tactical, turn-based squad games with light RPG elements. It feels pretty linear but the challenges are fun and the variety of missions keeps it fresh and difficult.
