Reviews often enjoy the combination of turn-based tactics and deck-building, especially when card choices, weapons and squad planning come together. Some also praise the atmospheric Warhammer setting and tactical depth. Others find the later missions very difficult or grind-heavy, and mention randomness in card draws as a source of frustrating disadvantages.
