Heist-Chess! A brilliant concept for a game that's immediately engaging and quickly inspires creative decisions for outfitting/improving your heist team to maximize the interaction between their movement abilities, loot-affecting abilities, and passives, and then tests your ability to assess risk and think multiple steps ahead for the actual encounters. It feels very comparable to Into the Breach, despite the very simplistic aesthetic and core gameplay loop.

The game leaves an excellent first impression, my only early concerns is whether there is enough meta-progression to leave each run feeling sufficiently new and different after the first few hours.
