This Is Not A Review: Wintermoor Tactics Club
Welcome to This Is Not A Review. In these articles we discuss general impressions, ideas and thoughts on any given game, but as the title implies, it’s not a review. Instead, it’s an exercise in offering a quick recommendation (or dismissal) after spending enough time to grasp the ideas and gameplay of a thing without necessarily playing it from A to Z.
The subject of this installment: Wintermoor Tactics Club, developed by EVC and published by Versus Evil.

HIGH Great malleability in approaches to play.
LOW That tutorial.
WTF It has been tracking my progress since early access.
This Is Not A Review – Necromunda: Underhive Wars
Warhammer is a frustrating license. When adaptations using the brand pop, they’re fantastic. Great settings, rich gameplay, and a lot of perks that come from being able to draw from such long-lived and celebrated IPs. Blood Bowl 2, Inquisitor: Martyr and Mechanicus were all fantastic, and some of my favorite experiences.

HIGH Hyper-crunchy team-based tactics. Lesbian cowgirls.
LOW Playing 3/4ths of the boat level without knowing I could swim.
WTF Why can’t I pick up ammo and give it to a teammate?
Spaceland Review
A Babylon Zoo
HIGH Bite-sized arenas.
LOW Paying to reset skills.
WTF Calling the enemies ‘redbacks’.
John Wick Hex Review
I Will Never Be The Baba Yaga
HIGH Stalking my prey and exacting righteous vengeance.
LOW Getting shot by a dude who literally appeared out of nowhere.
WTF Why does everyone think they can take John Wick in single combat?
