Overview

Atlas Reactor is a 4v4 team-based tactical/strategic PvP game that uses simultaneous turns with 4 action phases during combat. Prep -> Dash -> Blast -> Move. Players can't Move after a Dash action. The players on both teams are given 20 seconds to choose an action each turn that is then played out in order. Prep and Blast actions are shown individually for a better idea of what has happened during their phases. Dash and Move actions are shown simultaneously during their phases.

Reception

While the developers did not excel at capturing my attention until I had given it a few more chances than an average game, Atlas Reactor proves to be genuinely unique in its style and definitely suited for those looking for strategy without the clickfest.

Atlas Reactor has successfully blended turn-based strategy with competitive multiplayer, and in addition has great style and personality. The big question is whether we will see a dedicated fan base and have players in it for the long haul.

Atlas Reactor provokes an impending tension, utters of despair at turns wasted, and cries of joy at enemies falling victim to your ten turns of dastardly planning. Don’t let this game pass you by, it’s well worth a shot.

Atlas Reactor shows that even if there are no new ideas anymore, there are still new ways to use the old ideas and make them interesting again. Continued support and a community will hold it up but we need some serious expansion to really make it great. Even still, what is here is very solid and worth the time of any strategy lover.

I usually never enjoy MOBA games, but Atlas Reactor is something extra. The Xcom meets Overwatch gameplay combined with the low price makes the game worthwhile for fans of both genres. It's not perfect but it's really enjoyable.
