User reviews & Ratings

This game is pretty fun. It has XCOM vibes to it, but much slower with less variety and customization to the point I reached so far with Terminators. I would say it's a really good effort at creating an original tactical turn-based game, with a good atmosphere. I personally find the story not that engaging, but I'm glad it focuses mostly on game-play. Once you figure out how to convert cards for AP things get beatable but it can feel a bit slow and repetitive, with very similar missions. I still came back for more, but it's a slightly unusual game in that what feels like a short mission while playing might be much longer in real time. Basically, you have to play the cards, either convert or deploy them or both. Otherwise you'll get wrecked. And let's be honest, every turn figuring out who gets those extra AP and then the repeated animations of the Xenos spawning, then choosing who gets the card, plus the tactical environment, takes a WHILE. I could fit 15 bullet chess games into the time some maps take, and chess is supposed to be cerebral. It's like a mix of XCOM and chess, if you put the brakes on both. By the way the animations are really cool, although the Xenos look a bit creepy and having to see them spawn the same way over and over is a combination of awesome horrifying boredom. To be fair you can turn that off, so I will try to play with faster animations and those Xeno animations turned off. The game costs pennies right now on discount. I would say it was definitely worth it. I forgot, you also basically need to be a hacker to even play this in 2025 since you have to disable a CPU setting.

As a Warhammer fan and having played the Space Hulk board game since 1994, please don't listen to the bad reviews given to this game. Most of the reviews are emotional-biased and based on lame non-relevant to gameplay matters such as being unable to start (new Windows tech needing you to do a simple workaround), nobody in lobby (it's been some time since release and people naturally find interest in other games), etc. People also tend to rate this game unfairly as to them it is difficult and they get X-COM-level probability and chances with their shots, but these people have no idea how the Space Hulk game mechanics work and not understand that this is indeed the way things – how notoriously punishing things can get for the Terminators if they make mistakes with positioning and juggling between turtling and playing towards the objective. This game is a labour of love and is very true to the Warhammer 40,000 franchise The story is engaging and isn't a rehash of the more popular story involving the Sin of Damnation space hulk. The game dialogue between Blood Angels, Ordo Xenos, and Adeptus Mechanicus was a joy to listen to and truly on-point. The Genestealer campaign is much shorter compared to the Blood Angels', but it was really fun to kill the Forces of the Imperium for a change! The Skirmish and Mission Editor allows lots of replayability and quick fun if you want to experience the board game. The graphics and attention to detail with Terminator customization shows the developers love the franchise and paid attention to the things that matter. Do get this game especially when it's on sale!

A lot of the reviews here complain about it being too difficult. I found the difficulty to be one of the main things I enjoyed. Solving these missions is like solving puzzles, each one is beatable but if you are not good enough you will lose, the units you choose to deploy matter, the cards you choose to deploy with matter and analyzing the map and where good choke points are is all important. Don't listen to the reviews that complain about difficulty, it's a skill issue for sure, I beat and never had to skip a single mission, it's great fun as long as you enjoy the process of solving the puzzle that is each tactical challenge. The game never crashed or had any issues for me so I cant speak on those complaints.

this game is an underrated gem for anyone looking to dip their toes in warhammer video games aswell as people who always wanted to try the space hulk board game thats stupidly expensive irl they've really nailed the hopelessness and against the odds feeling of these terminator space marines in this claustrophobic environment. and as with all space hulk adaptation attempts it is extremely unforgiving AND somewhat unfair (cant savescum :[)" but it is so addicting to play and keep trying to minimize risk as much as possible with codex inspired TACTICS before that inevitable intense moment where you HAVE to risk it all and pray to the emperor to guide you through that exceptionally dangerous maneuver or fail and lose everything... i guess this game is not for everyone but i thoroughly enjoyed it! ps. i havent tried the 2013 space hulk and space hulk ascension games because they are delisted but looking thru old gameplay im sure even if i play them id still consider this adaptation the best!

I'm not sure what's up with the technical issues, bugs and crashes other commenters are experiencing, but after trying out the first few missions, I've found nothing of the sort, much less anything game breaking. As for the game, it's a pretty fun, mostly arcady turn-based tactics experience, meaning that you'll be playing more for the refreshing mechanics and the cool little ideas thrown in the loop, and less for the W40K lore, even if it's there. The voice acting and audio design are all excellent.
