OVERALL:

1971 Project Helios is an interesting turn-based strategy game with some nice RPG elements based in the eternal winter postapocaliptic escenario. The combat system is based in the classical strategy grid, with some fresh tweaks, like the Fulgor use, but some points like the flat characters, the graphics, of the absence of some options in the camera, make other games better options within the genre, but you can give it a try, you will probably enjoy it.

Score: 7.5/10
