Warhammer 40,000: Mechanicus – Gameplay Trailer: Surprise Release and Positive Reviews
Type: Round Tactics | developer: Bulwark Studios | Release: 15. November 2018 | Free until: 3. November
Do you like the turn-based tactics in XCOM and also the dark sci-fi world of Warhammer 40,000? Then Mechanicus might be the right game for you. As the commander of the human tech priest unit Adeptus Mechanicus, you explore the planet Silva Tenebris, the buried world of the Necron, newly discovered by the Empire, the space-faring immortal robot race.
More than 50 missions require your tactical skills as you dig deeper into the ruins. If you like Warhammer 40K: Chaos Gate, you can also try Mechanicus – both games offer a good XCOM experience, albeit a bit simplistic.
