Into The Breach - A Futuristic Giant Mech Strategy Game
Into The Breach Part 1 - a perfect information turn-based strategy game. Along with puzzle games, I love strategy games, as long as they're playable in a short sitting. This is perfect if you want an easy to learn but hard to master strategy game like chess!

I haven't done a good turn-based strategy game since Slay the Spire. I loved that, so this should be a blast as well! Definitely check out the game for yourselves on PC and Switch.
Hey, you see those black tiles? You could stand on them or push enemies on to that tile to block an enemy spawning next turn while dealing 1 damage
Into the Breach is a great game. Some tips that I can give for the starting team is to use the artillery to move enemies instead of damaging them, and you should invest reputation in power cores to boost damage on your weapons. (Preferably invest in a long-range weapon to do more damage from afar) You should also have at least 1 power invested into HP since in later stages some hits will be necessary to get a good move.
@Amplify To your first point, yeah that's true, i think Bethany Jones is also able to trivialize the downside of it. To your second point, YEAH that's pretty much true, altough with the custom squad thing, i'm sure that 3 Cryo launcher mechs is one of the easiest things to do (It gets you 2 achievements) And for the third one... Yeah true Ice Generator or Wind Turrent are WAY more busted. Cryo Launcher still pretty good tho
Yes more of dis pls
this looks really fun and I would love to watch you play it on stream!
Hey, this looks very interesting.
I'd love to see more!
Love this game
FINALLY, I THOUGHT THIS DAY WOULD NEVER COME
HOLY SHIT!!! I'm so happy that you're playing this, I absolutely LOVE this game!
I've played this game so much. I have every achievement and unlocked the secret squad (spoiler below) Its the Cyborg Squad
*Wait till he sees the alpha's.*
So, this is if mars power industries was a fire emblem game?
That was painful to watch himself so willingly kill the civvies.
alien fan plays cool game
I've been playing this game for so long, and the amount of big brain shit that's possible is out of this world. I hope he plays more
This is definitely the best roguelike game for someone who likes puzzles. It gets really complicated with certain other mech types
yay! i love this even though it may not be exactly your usual style.
This is a fantastic game. Highly recommend.

This is a cool game, I like it!
#Tyler 1v1 me btd battles I beat u four times in cc my username was tewtiy
more!
I love this game so play this again
I hope you play many episodes of this game
hey, you should playt "Block Motion: Unleashed"
General rambling advice, trying to tell you about mechanics without lecturing you on the best tactics: You'll often have to make decisions about who to save. Objectives > Power > Mechs is the general priority. Mech damage costs you nothing if the mech survives. Grid power costs 1 Reputation to repair, the same as you'd get from an objective, but there's a bonus reward for completing an island without failing any objectives, and it's very worth it. Put the artillery mech on the longest row or column - it can move back and forth to shoot anywhere you need, without putting itself at risk. Don't worry too much about blocking spawns - stuff that you've blocked generally shows up in the next round instead. However, if you can block a spawn with an enemy, that's free damage right there.
Good luck with this, you are going to need it. I spent a lot of time in this gaime and oh boy it is not fair in the least. Just a couple tips: Your mechs regen after every fight, it is better to take a hit with them if you have to cause city damage is harder to replace. Read the attack order each turn it will tell you which enemies attack when, this lets you plan on how they damage each other. Environment is both friendly and a bane. pay close attention to what type of attack each unit does, they are different (melee, ranged, splash, etc)
You could've repaired your combat mech at 10:14 instead of just ending the turn with no action. >=(
yessssssssssss, I recomended this way back when you started Baba, I think you'll enjoy it. From the mad lads who make FTL one of the better PC games I've played. I think it's less your style but this game being what me and my brother describe as super complex sudoku seems right up your alley. Hope you enjoy the game as much as I have.
This looks AWESOME
You should really play FLT: Faster Than Light! It is a really fun game made by the same people and it is a classic!
@Gregor V. he played it on twitch during the last variety shitshow. He gave it a 4/10 though.
@Spleen Popper Get me a video link cause I don't see crap
he already played it
ooh Tyler playing Into the Breach, that's cool as heck also it's funny that you say it's more of a strategy game than a puzzle, since most people I've seen (who are coming from a mainly strategy game background) say it's more like a puzzle than a strategy game in lots of ways
Pro tip: Enemies can block each other from spawning.
We need more of this!
*loses half of a bonus objective* "its ok we lost anyway"
I hope this becomes something you play more oftenly on the channel.
WOOHO YYYEES YEAH YUP YEAH YEP YUP YAAAAAAAAAAAAAY I LOVE THIS GAME MY PFP IS LITERALLY FROM IT WOHOOOOOO YEAH YES YUP YEAH YES I HAVE LIKE 2K HOURS ON IT PLEASE END MY MISERABLE EXISTANCE
I have this game, honestly I’m really glad you went in and played it
what a fun game
Its been a while since ive played this. Its a good game
Play this more please :)
Communist detected on American ground. Engage lethal forces.
I LOVE this game
Epic
Oh this game I heard about this it's PogChamp
It hurts my soul whenever tyler makes an obvious mistake, even though I know he's only been playing for a few minutes
He spent so much time focusing down single enemies or spending an extra action on enemies already not hitting anything and I was weeping
Into the Breach has some really fun teams to mess around with once you start unlocking them
One of the best game I ever played. XD
Ni.ce
This game is made by the same people as FTL: Faster than light WHERE IS FACTORIO
i was playing ftl and there is this thing in the corner represeting their other game gues wicht
Can you play mindustry? there been a huge update and its a really cool Game
I love this game! Please play it more!
Tyler! You play this.
Dude. The music. You ruined it :/
I have no idea what you're talking about, but my personal best song from the game is "Rusting Hulks" Cause it do be really cool, R.S.T is one of my favorite islands just cause of it.
I love this game and Ive been playing it for quite some time now, love seeing you play it, hope well get ep 2 and more!
There's a shitload of other mechs you can unlock too, my favorite strat is bodyblocking then freezing my own guys so they get unfrozen by damage but don't get hurt
I personally love the Hazardous mechs, the high damage completely trivializes the downside of them, also you could just pick Ariadne (The rock person) Or the guy that i completely forgot the name that gives 1 Armor point to the mech and it makes you not take any damage when you atack
Chess with g u n s
I actually really enjoyed watching you play this game
"Great, it's turn based, so that'll make my life really easy..." **chuckles in experienced Into The Breach player**
I got 3 mechs and 30 enemies, this is the game being forgiving
Seeing him reset the turn instead of the move was pretty painful
the game being turn based is both a blessing and a curse, but by all accounts will it terrify you by how defenseless you will feel.
Tyler (if that’s how you spell it. I’m not good with names,) said it is a strategy and not a puzzle, but is there a difference between them? I don’t know but they sound like the same to me. Pls correct me if I’m wrong.
Day 10 of petition for Tyler (aliensrock) to play frostpunk
I've waited for so long for Tyler to play this game
I've played some of this game, and it was VERY fun, hope you'll continue playing someday :)
Day 3 of the
You should try ftl if you liked this!
Someday we’ll get the legendary 30+ minute video
Turns in this game feel a lot like solving puzzles, but with an element of strategy instead of a definitive win state. You have different priorities to juggle and will often have to make sacrifices, and thinking through different lines of play with different approaches and priorities feels like solving multiple overlapping puzzles and deciding which solution you like best. Hard, impactful choices that require sacrifices come up regularly, so the moments when you've racked your brain and are about to make a tough call then have a revelation that puts the puzzle pieces together for a perfect turn, the feeling is incredibly rewarding.
Yeah what you said is indeed true, BUT HAVE YOU TRIED THE CRYO LAUNCHER?!??!? That weapon completely trivializes the game, letting you completely stop a Vek for an entire battle, just for free, and there are pilots that literally ignore the downside of it. (Mafan/Britany Jones are some examples of it, that they spawn with shields)
Creeper World 4 just came out, I think you'll enjoy it.
Yes seriously I'm really excited for this I hope he likes it
I adore this game and would love to see more
I'm absolutely baffled you haven't played this game until now. Even more so is you haven't played FTL
Isnt into the breach like...4 years old? Doesnt matter tho, still a great game i love to play :D
@KazaaakplethKilik thanks! definitely gonna look into it :D
@Jiří Moravec MMmh... The Ice one is probably the most busted one, my other favorites are pretty much the Leap, Unstable and Acid Mechs, the Aegis mech is also one of my favorites.
@KazaaakplethKilik didnt expect it to go dark this fast D: what mechas are the most op in your opinion?
I'm sure it's a game from 2018, it still holds up to this day, the game is just completely amazing and i keep playing it to this day please end my miserable existance i have like 2k hours on it i need friends
Into the Breach gives me the big sad - every time you fail everyone but the pilots die and I can’t take the feeling of millions of fake lives lost due to my 10 IQ brain
I think this is just fire emblem
"Into the breach" *shows robot and destroyed city* Me:... WAIT A MINUTE
oh wow i started playing this game like 2 weeks ago! hope you'll play it more :D
I have played a ton of this the past week, excited to see your strategy in the game!
where is clustertruck
Wasn't there a two towers chimps video today? What happened?
The editors note is really helpful, thank you editor
im so hyped that Aliensrock plays into the breach. I played it its so cooooooooooool
This was fun!
I 100% cleared this game. It's tough as hell, expect to hit the ABANDON TIMELINE button constantly whenever RNG doesn't go your way in the slightest. WARNING: Explanations about enemy AI below. Do not read if you want to figure it out yourself. A tip with enemy AI: The enemy recognizes three valid target types. 1. All player controlled units and player allied units, except destroyed. Frozen counts. 2. All buildings, except destroyed. 3. All frozen enemies. The enemy will randomly choose one of these three in range to attack. Each has the same weight (meaning if there is 1 player controlled units and 3 buildings nearby, the enemy has a 1/4 chance to attack the player). This is why freezing enemies is such a good thing to do, because not only do you waste that enemy's turns, you might waste the turn of an enemy trying to free its ally. Enemies can walk through each other but never through rocks or the player. Enemies will prioritize higher destruction of targets over making sure they don't commit multiple cases of friendly fire. If the enemy cannot find a valid target, the enemy will move as close as possible to a valid target. Also a small suggestion: Once you play through the game once with each squad, I'd suggest getting two mods: 1. "Balance the Breach." It's a fanmade balance patch. It really helps player experience, I highly recommend it. 2. "Grid Shield." Basically, makes +3 Grid DEF no longer "oh god why, this is terrible." Now at the start of the game for every unit with Grid Shield, a random building gets a shield AND you still get the +3. Actually makes it a viable option to roll.
As somebody who played this and didn't know mods were a thing, i'm sure you still gonna do pretty well without them. The first statement with the RNG issue is quite... Sad, i personally dont like resetting my runs cause of RNG cause it feels cheap, you lost 150 people (Like 1-2 buildings) And then you just decide that "Nah this timeline fucked up let's go to another" And you leave billions of people to die
Yoooo, glad to see this being played
Woooo I wanna play this so bad
PLEASE check out FTL oh my goodness it's made by the same ppl who made Into the Breach and is 100% a game that people will never stop playing.
he played it but didn’t like it
It's chess but with time traveling war machines 😍✨🎉
will he play more? pretty sure he would really like it
Kinda late lol
more
Love this game, glad to see you enjoy playing it lol.
Day 4 of agreeing with "Time Zone III Chicken is a vegetable" to bring back the ladder.
Day 4 of agreeing with myself
Here are a few tips for your Into The Breach journey (no spoilers): -Mechs don’t have to attack directly after moving. You can plan ahead by moving all of them, then attack. -You can cancel mech movement, but not after an attack. -Use the Reset Turn wisely: you only get it once per level!
@Raoul1808 Oh, that's nice! always love giving the little knowledge i have to new players, it's a really nice thing to do and yeah... Have fun!
@KazaaakplethKilik I didn't even know that pilot existed, thanks for the extra tip
With the third point, there's a special pilot "Isaac Jones" That gives you ANOTHER reset turn, wich is really helpful the first like... 50 runs you do, cause it lets you experiment a lot more, and also make up for your mistakes. (Mafan best pilot tho bro just look at that 1+ reactor for literally free)
WOOOOOOO
WOOOOOOO
Yes
Finally, a game I can play along with :) (I have Bloons 6 too but I'm not good enough for the challenges)
Aliensrock has played so many games that Joseph Anderson has Coincidence I think not
This game is very good and I hope the series continues.
PRAYSE BE THE FOUNDERS FOR THYSE GLORYES GYFTE!
You should try FTL if you like this, one of my personal favorite games
I think FTL is MUCH more RNG dependant, and it also is a Rogue-Like... And it's not even a puzzle game... But it really good tho Stealth A pretty good ship and all Mantis ships really good 10/10 would suffer another 1000 hours with it any day
I love this game, and hope to see more (even if it is unlikely to happen)
