Skyshine's Bedlam

I went in expecting a straightforward tactics game and found something messier: Bedlam layers squad management, resource hoarding, and procedural wasteland exploration into a gritty turn-based package. You build a crew from survivalist archetypes, kit them with scavenged gear, and push through randomly-generated zones toward the mythical city of Bedlam. The squad customization loop works well enough to keep you tinkering between battles. But execution stumbles where it matters. Combat encounters feel samey after a few hours, the UI treats basic actions like moving squad members with unnecessary friction, and difficulty swings wildly between trivial and punishing with little middle ground. The procedural generation rarely surprises you. It's not a bad game, just a repetitive one that doesn't justify the time investment past the first handful of hours. Genre enthusiasts with patience for rough edges might find a weekend's worth here, but everyone else will bounce off.
