The resident "old game of the year" of this list. I bought the iOS version in December of 2016 and it absolutely consumed my play time for the first 2 months of 2017. It's a remarkable achievement to create a good facsimile of Xcom combat in a 2D space, and to do it with such style and character. Make more of these, please, Image & From.
