XCOM: Chimera Squad

Chimera Squad is a smaller, easier, buggier entry to the series which tries out something different. It was 50% off before it even launched, presumably to get people to give it a chance and I'm glad I did, although I hope it isn't the direction that XCOM 3 takes. Being smaller & simpler in every way compared to it's predecessors is good & bad; it's easier to get into & play in small doses, but gets repetitive quickly. If you're a fan of XCOM or tactics games I would recommend it, although only once they've made it more stable; I don't appreciate having my time wasted with lost save games.
