Mechabellum is one of the best game I ever purchased. There, I said it. And I've yet to see another Autobattler tackling what it does for now. I always pitch it as: It's chess, but you deepen the gameplay a bunch, and you get to watch cool robots fighting each others after each moves. And you can play up to 4. What differenciate it to so many other autobattlers: Outside of the starter set you can pick at the beginning of each game, and the loadout of techs you bring to the table to be bought during a game, everything is stricly the same to pick and buy for everyone, so while luck is kinda involved, you're not feeling tied to the shallow graces of RNGesus, and what counts the most is: Did you think better than your opponent and made a better play ? And howdy does it feel nice when you correctly guess and counter your opponent's next move. when you make your greatest comeback, or when you're 12 round deep and neither of you can outsmart the other and the battle becomes a freaking firework. Also, you feel intimidated by going 1v1 or 2v2 ? Here, play a brawl and watch the madness of 1v1v1v1vE. You feel the game is getting a bit boring ? Here, Dimensionnal Rift with rulebending stuff going on! And what's best, the devs are very clearly interested in making a good game, keeping it fresh, keeping it balanced, and making it fun and enjoyable to everyone. NGL, they used to introduce game changing updates a bit too frequently, and it did kinda "break" the game (meaning, it created some very defining meta, nothing more), but they learnt their lessons. Their monetization scheme is one of the most consumer friendly IMHO: There are a very limited number of skins behind a paywall, and the rest can be purchased either by in-game currency farmed as time goes on (even when the game is closed), or with money to fast track it. The only FOMO you can have are rewards from seasons, and you can't just buy it. You have to unlock it by playing. You don't even need to be ranked or to have a certain level of skill. You just have to play. The music rocks too. The absolute kickass name is just cherry on top. Damn I love this game so much.

This game is AMAZING. It's a distillation of everything that makes Starcraft great - the strategical decisions, the mind games, the depth - but without the "autism". No need to be a mouse athlete with your "APM", your "macro", your "hotkeys" and "control groups", your exploitation of - let's be absolutely frank here - BUGS. No obtuse interface for the sake of being obtuse. I'm not 20 anymore, so I can't (and by the gods, don't want to) play Starcraft anymore. But Mechabellum is just crack cocaine for my arthritic self. Beyond the top notch gameplay, this game is just BEAUTIFUL to see in action. No exaggeration, the unit design is the best I've ever seen. All units have strong identity, and they were clearly designed by people with a love of speculative engineering. It's a purely cosmetic thing, but the inventive and believable reload animations, cooling mechanisms after shots, propulsion systems, optics systems... it makes each of them look like actual war machines that went through iterations of R&D, and then were mass produced in assembly lines, from modular components that make sense. There's a quiet, elegant world building in just the way they look and move, all without the need of a single word. Dev support for this game has been absolutely legendary. We're on season 7, and they're still adding content and shaking things up. They listen to the community. Oh, and the community? If you miss what the Internet used to be circa 2010... drop everything you're doing, and join up right away. You don't fully realize how much you miss and need it, until you see it again. The asking price for this game is laughable. There's easily 50X as much value in here. Make the easiest decision of your life and buy it.

This auto‑battler is surprisingly innovative. I’ve been playing for a while, and the developers are very active, consistently adding fresh ideas with each major update. The core gameplay is straightforward: you choose a starting bonus, place units each round, and after every battle both you and your opponents draft from the same pool of four cards until someone runs out of HP. It follows the familiar structure of most auto‑battlers, but with some unique twists. There are three game modes 1v1, 2v2, and 1v1v1v1, and each unit can be customized with up to four pieces of tech. You activate these tech options before the match, then spend money during rounds to equip them, with costs increasing as a unit gains more tech. What makes the game interesting is that even though everyone has access to the same units, the tech you choose can completely change how those units function. Like any auto‑battler, there’s some RNG in the card offerings, but I’d say this game leans more heavily on strategy than most. Overall, it’s a genuinely fun experience, and I’d highly recommend it at full price.

As a Millennial dad with young kids, this game scratches the strategy RTS itch incredibly well while respecting your time. I love the quick matches and the focus on decision making as opposed to macro/micro control of units and base building. 10/10 one of the best value strategy games I’ve ever played.

If you went to reviews to decide if you should buy this game, I am your man. Overall, the game is amazing fun for the first several dozens of hours at the very least. You should definitely buy if: + You are an old man like me and spending 1k hours in Starcraft 2 to get to a reasonable micro control level is way too much, but you want to play the "unit composition chess" + You love auto battlers, but they are too boring/casual/grindy for you + You love learning meta in games like Dota, but yet again hate the other mechanical parts You might not like it, if you are: - Hyper competitive to the point where you hate any randomness, lack of control or any possible slight disbalance in the game - You want single player experience. It pretty much doesn't exist in this game. 100% PvP
