I cast Power Word: Gun at 9th level.
It might just be my history with City of Heroes—an MMO which had witches and wizards aplenty in its modern comic-book styled setting—or my love of Dimension 20’s Fantasy High, but I’m a huge fan of modern magic settings. Give me a witch in a leather jacket and I’m basically there.
Tactical Breach Wizards, which we previewed back in May 2021, has been in the oven for a while—and, at long last, has a playable demo on Steam.
I was completely unaware of its existence until a friend excitedly shared it to me in a Discord server with the message ‘blowing you all up’ rendered in block capitals over the weekend, which I consider a solid recommendation to check something out regardless of personal tastes. I was then told by my fellow writers that PC Gamer alumnus Tom Francis made it—which makes me feel a little embarrassed, but hopefully impartial enough to let you know that I mean it when I say this game already rocks.
Tactical Breach Wizards is shaping up to be an excellent time if you’re a fan of turn-based strategy games like XCOM (or, more recently, Capes)—although, in terms of moment-to-moment gameplay, the game plays out a little more like Chimera Squad, focusing on a squad of defined characters doing battle in tight spaces, though it already feels more well-realised than that game did.
Each level includes a series of rapid-fire breaches requiring cunning deployment of guns and spells to deal with foes like the druid mafia, cops (you’re a loose cannon PI, naturally), and whoever’s unlucky enough to get on the business end of your hexes.
