I Tried MENACE On Expert Difficulty...It's BRUTAL

Jumping into MENACE on Expert difficulty turned out to be way more brutal than I expected. In this first episode, I’m taking on the hardest setting the demo has to offer and breaking down how the game’s tactical systems feel when every mistake matters. If you’ve been curious about how MENACE plays on higher difficulties or want to see what a full Expert run looks like, this is a great place to start!

MENACE is shaping up to be one of the most interesting upcoming turn-based tactics games, and playing it on Expert really highlights how punishing and rewarding its combat design can be. I’ll be going through the new mech added to the updated demo, talking through decisions as I make them, and showing how fast things can fall apart when the enemy gets aggressive.

If you enjoy turn-based strategy games, XCOM-style tactical combat, or challenge runs where positioning and squad management matter, this series should be right up your alley. This episode sets the tone for the entire Expert Mode playthrough, and I’ll be uploading more as the campaign continues.
