As we get deeper into the lifecycle of the Switch, developers are becoming much more savvy with what they can bring to our favorite portable workhorse. That's not to say the Switch version is always comparable to the other platforms, but this does...
The interesting thing about Mutant Year Zero is the game being divided into real-time exploration but turn-based tactical combat. The world is divided up into different sections that you can explore as you set out to find a missing Stalker, along the...
this is a very typical post-apocalyptic storytelling with the twist of mutant animals thrown in. This addition makes the main cast – eventually builds up the final team of five – standout more, thanks to their well-written and distinct personalities,...
Cute anthropomorphic pigs and ducks who curse, kill, and eat people, a competent turn-based combat system with complex elements of stealth, pacing, and management, and an interesting world should make for a game that proves as good as its premise. For...
It seems I have quickly become the strategy reviewer here at ZTGD. Hey, XCOM is one of my favorite franchises so I really don't mind. When I heard a new XCOM like game was coming a few months ago, my ears turned up a bit. When I saw a talking duck and...
Impressive effort with a few noticeable problems holding it back. Won't astound everyone, but is worth your time and cash.How we score: The destructoid reviews...
Gameplay inconsistencies and forced grinding can wear one down, however, and keep the title from reaching its full potential. Overall, Mutant Year Zero: Road to Eden is deserving of attention and provides solid entertainment for tactics fans.

With its interesting world and characters and excellent gameplay mechanics which advance the genre with the introduction of stealth and seamless exploration, Mutant Year Zero: Road To Eden is one of the best turn-based tactical games released in recent...
Mutant Year Zero offers an engaging, if limited, gameplay experience that serves players a pretty decent challenge in combat strategy, and choice of action in real-time stressful situations. All this played through the eyes of interesting characters in...
Mutant Year Zero took me by surprise. When you tap the space bar to switch from the real-time exploration mode to the turn-based tactical mode, it's not considered activating combat. You're not entering into battle. The word “Fight!” doesn't leap out of...
By blending real-time stealth with tried-and-true tactics gameplay, Mutant Year Zero: Road to Eden breaks exciting new ground for the turn-based strategy game. Even with some mechanics that don't mesh perfectly with the gameplay, it teases your brain in...
Sometimes one apocalypse just isn’t enough. I think history has proven that humans are a tenacious group of buggers – we’ve lived through a lot. Global Warming, bubonic plagues, nuclear warfare – just to name a...
