A tactical game where I can play semi-competitively even if I only play a couple hours each week. Most competitive games like (CSGO, Apex, Starcraft, LoL) have a "twitch" element that take years to build up, and requires constant practice to maintain. And many tactical games like chess have an element of rote memorization that gives it a super high barrier of entry to be competitive as well. So I'm looking for something non-twitchy, but tactical, with ideally at most a moderate sized barrier of entry to get into it. The closest I've come was Hearthstone, but I decided to give it up when I finally acknowledged how exploitative their monetization is.
- wmeredith 4y agoTry Transformers: Tactical Arena currently on Apple arcade. It scratches this itch for me very well. My son and I just found it a couple weeks ago and have been having a blast. It has an active developer, too. I've been pleasantly surprised with the update content/frequency.
- polmuz 4y agoRocket League? The skill ceiling is super high but the ranking system works pretty well and in the lower ranks tactics and positioning is more important than mechanical abilities.
- rbtprograms 4y agoI thought Tooth and Tail fit this bill pretty well, kind of like a StarCraft lite. Games are meant to be quick, about 5-12 minutes. Good strategy RTS that isn't hard to get into and I had a lot of fun with it.
