Steamworld Heist Combines Chess And Robots

Featured Image for Steamworld Heist Combines Chess And Robots

If you've played Steamworld Dig you know that developers Image & Form can make an enjoyable game. With Steamworld Heist they move to turn based strategy rather than action platforming.

The end result is a tactical game, not unlike chess, although played from the side perspective with steam powered robots. It sounds complicated but actually it's really accessible and can be played by a wide range of family members.

Here's our full guide on how the game works as well as a look at the weapons, upgrades and early levels.
