The Consensus: Is It Worth Playing?

Turn-based tactical RPG set before Gears of War, following Gabe Diaz as he assembles a squad to hunt a Locust general. Adapts XCOM-style mechanics to the Gears universe with flashy executions and aggressive, action-point-driven gameplay.

Gears Tactics is a very fun but relatively simple TRPG that nails the combat.

it seems like a game for when you want something like XCOM that is simply easier to jump into due to the lack of all the management aspects
