Our take on Battle Grid
The game lists 80+ weapons, 80+ units, and thousands of possible team combinations, while its stated setting spans two planets. That puts the emphasis on squad variation within runs rather than on a long list of locations.
What is Battle Grid?
Battle Grid is an action roguelite combining survivor-style combat with auto-battler team building.
Each run lasts 20 minutes as enemy numbers increase. Players position and improve mechs, weapons, and grid structures, then combine units and weapons to create synergies. Resources collected during runs can be used to buy permanent upgrades for the grid and mechs. The game includes two planets, 13+ enemy types, 6+ bosses, 80+ weapons, 80+ units, 10+ unit synergies, and 15+ weapon synergies. A corporate ladder adds challenge modifiers to runs, and the game lists thousands of possible team combinations.
