"From the moment i understood the weakness of my flesh" this intro will forever stuck in your brain.
Fantastic Game.

The game is really good, especially for a 40k game. The writing is nice and gives you decent glimpse into the Mechanicus and some factions within them. The gameplay is solid, it feels less like a strategy game and more like a puzzle to be solved which is pretty fun.

However there are issues, on the intended difficulty the game is very easy. Your Tech Priests quickly become self healing gods that destroy everything. In my entire playthrough of the game I didnt't have a single Tech Priest die, only expendable troops.

Also because it is so easy it feels like theres no reason to "explore" the extra rooms in missions. I just beeline to the objective everytime.

I hope that the second game addresses some of this because it was really fun but it could be better. I'd recommend it on sale.

One of the best chill startegy game ever, in the beggining it will be harda nd challanging, but the further you come the more fun and easy it will be. Remember that i manage to start the necron one man space program. People who played this know the joke..... one of the best bug ever

you can get all achivements in 2 campaigns which i got

still reccomend this one hard and now, time for the long wait for Mechanicus 2

FOR THE GLORIUS OMNISSIAH HOLY TOASTER, WE WILL BRING IT BACK TO MARS!

Highly recommend to those who are either versed in 40k lore or are interested in being so. For those looking for an entry point into strategy or turn based games, this game is so niche it wouldn't be my first choice. But man what an amazing job they did soaking this work in 40k lore. Absolutely amazing. Music, art, audio, story flow. Perfect. The game mechanics itself are pretty fun. Controls are clear and easy to pick up. It is a little strange not having any cover mechanics that I have seen yet but there are options baked in to reduce incoming damage. No RNG it seems. Every shot either side has made, if within range, hits 100% of the time. I haven't played through the game yet but based on the amount of character and game setting customization offered, there is much replay value there. If you are a 40k fan, this game is for you. If you aren't, I'd say look elsewhere.

Boring, so incredibly boring.

The atmosphere is well done, the lore is good, Mechanicus and Necrons are portrayed well.

The combat is so dull, and the game gets too easy too fast. Half way through the game you're dreading encounters because its just a time waster. Click click, everything is dead, on to the next.... repeat.

I like it. It isn't as good as X-Com, but it has it's own thing going on. There is no "chance to hit" non-sense that a lot of these games have. If you are in range, you hit. It's that simple. There's also an interesting fatigue mechanic that allows you too push your character past their normal parameters to pull of some really cool combos.

It's probably not everyone's cup of tea, but if you like Warhammer 40k and X-Com, you'll probably like this.

this is a great game. if you're considering buying it, go ahead and give it a shot. you won't get AAA levels of graphics and polish, but the gameplay is addictive fun, the dialogue and characters are well done, and the music is something I would buy separately as an album. It's some of the best I've heard in a game.

The other day I had this craving for the strength and certainty of steel; I think this scratched that itch.

The real shining light of this game is gameplay. With an intensely deep customization system, you can run each mission however you’d please. Each character has over a dozen equipment slots and several skill trees that you can level independently of each other. You can send in a beefy two-handed axe wielder in full armor in headlong, and have an equally powerful ranged damage dealer with two turrets strapped to his back. Each mission rewards you with new characters or gear, and the game lets you know before you select a mission, what the rewards will be, so you can plan the most efficient route to your goals before that global clock hits 100%.

A short but fun experience.

Pros
- Unique even amongst other 40k games as there isn't a lot of representation afaik for the Adeptus Mechanicus as far as games go, the lore and setting is pretty cool
- Decent mission variety and enemy types
- Very reasonable difficulty on Normal, made for a generally relaxing experience compared to some of the harder titles out there

Cons
- I wish the build variety was fleshed out further. If you have enough resources, you can make very little meaningful differences in your build


Not much to say really, just a solid title and a good pick especially if you grab it on sale!
