Stirring Abyss – Review

Stirring Abyss, by Sleepy Sentry and Slitherine Ltd., is a turn based tactical RPG with a story mode set in an underwater region, following an attack on a submarine that leaves the crew scattered and stranded. The intent of the game is to find the missing crew members, including the captain who may or may not have something to do with what happened. In addition to the story mode there is an endless mode which allows you to choose between a pair of missions until you fail three of them. The game functionally is similar to the XCOM family of games but adapted to the setting and themes of Stirring Abyss in a functional and effective way.

Conclusion

Stirring Abyss is good. It is close enough to the formula set out by XCOM 2 that if you like XCOM 2 you will probably enjoy it, but it also does a great job distinguishing itself, serving as a tight, focused tactical turn based RPG that provides a lot of enjoyable gameplay in its relatively short play time. I greatly enjoyed my time playing it and was really happy that I got an opportunity to play it. Definitely worth checking out.

Thanks Lucky Day!
