Score: 83% Grade: B-
Summary: A solid, aesthetically pleasing entry in the real-time tactical genre. Unlike many, however, stealth is important but not crucial, allowing for a refreshing option to go in guns blazing if you want. The influence of Mimimi games is strong, which is a good thing, though it lacks polish in enough ways that the difference in quality is noticeable. Still highly recommended for fans of the genre!

-Art, Aesthetic, Setting: Fantastic. Perfect for this type of game.
-Character Design: They look awesome! Their backstories are interesting and believable, though sparsely exhibited and not terribly complex.
-Level Design: Impressively large, complicated, and non-linear. There are many ways to approach a given situation, which matters a lot considering that each character has their own skill trees and special abilities.
-Sound Design: Crisp, clear, fitting, and just enjoyable.

-Mechanics: While generally competent and satisfying, some special abilities are vastly better than others or simply redundant. Implementation and NPC behaviour is a bit inconsistent. This is mitigated by the effective quicksave option, but it feels a bit sloppy sometimes.
-Interface: Inventory management, item comparison, and click hitboxes are all a pain.

-Length: There’s plenty of gameplay, but without a really engaging story it feels a bit long.
-Voice Acting: Most are decent/good, but a few are stellar, especially Trofim, Nikitin, and Morozov.

EDIT: Original quickshot review below.

It's good! I think some negative reviews make the mistake of comparing this to the Mimimi games (Desperado, Shadow Tactics), from which it copies many elements, especially the mission UI, but this game has a different playstyle and aesthetic. It's not as polished, but it stands well on its own. If you enjoy this genre, this game is a worthy entry, with plenty of variety and fun. It also allows a little more playstyle flexibility than most in the genre, which mostly focuses on stealth. It's very important here, but there are way more opportunities to pick a firefight if you want.
