If you want something that gives you semi realistic tactical strategy paired with rpg elements, then this is for you. 5 years later and I love this game even more. Playing with a stylus is even better! I remember when this was a pc only game still in development. I'm so happy you guys went mobile like we wanted! Keep it up! Now we need a Roman squad Combat version!
Reviews for Door Kickers
I love the game. Very strategic. Worth the money. However it doesn't explain a few things that can make things go differently then how you want. For example I picked a lock thinking I could silently get a few guys (which is an option if you sneak up on them) but it kicked down the door alerting the crooks. T hats really my only complaint tho. At the very least explain them on the website or something.
Basically a copy paste of the old PC game. Bought because of nostalgia, and it didn't disappoint. Using your finger instead of a mouse to move units around can be a little annoying at times, but otherwise a very good port. For those who aren't familiar with the game. It's a top down, "real time", tactical shooter. I put real time in quotes because you can pause and plan out movements. A good amount of content for the money. And I've bought it twice. Once here and once on steam.
Awesome game. Love the freedom of it. You can do the levels absolutely anyway you want. Long as you pass the objective then you move on. Different soldier classes and an upgrade store to mix things up and keep it fresh. Controls can be a bit hard drawing lines close to other soldiers, but nothing game breaking at all. And with the way the levels are, you can play for 5-10 minutes or you can sink a couple hours into it. Worth the money.
Transitioning a PC game to mobile isn't always the easiest task. After sinking about 20 hours into the game to this point I'd say it's as good as could be expected. Certain things are lost in the translation as controls need to be streamlined. But the only thing I will genuinely complain about is that sometimes after selecting an action at a door while paused in planning mode, once you press play, the action you chose disappears as if you didn't select anything at all. Other than that, 👍.
Superb game. Quite challenging as you progress, but I haven't yet found anything to be impossible or overwhelming. They definitely make you think hard though! My only suggestion for the developer is to add an option during planning to "lock" an officer's path, or be able to hide all but the one you're working on. I constantly try to adjust an officer's orientation/path and end up somehow grabbing a different officer's path and resetting it, which is very frustrating. I'm even using a stylus pen.
I've wanted to play this for a while, but with so many games not living up to the hype or getting repetitive quickly, I've never taken the chance. I finally grabbed it on sale and am absolutely loving it!! I've only done a few of the single missions so far, but it was well worth the money! Great job devs!! Hope you all release a sequel later!!
This game is so close to being the best game I've played on android. I just want a lock command and undo command on my SWAT team. The further you get on the game the longer the routes you have to create for your team which takes A LOT of time. I've rage quit/uninstalled a few times due to spending 20 - 30 minutes on a plan and when I zoom out a glitch causes one of my trails to reset/reroute. It would be extremely helpful if there was a lock/undo feature.
I love the idea of the game. It reminds me of an overhead stylized version of the '98 Sierra game Police Quest: SWAT 2. My biggest gripe has to do with the controls on my cell phone. As many others have commented, there have been times when I spend a good five minutes planning a takedown only to inadvertently press the wrong button losing all progress. Also, trying to select a waypoint for unit when it is near a door or even another unit's waypoint is all but impossible.
Great game. Like some of the other reviewers said, controlling the game on a cell phone can be a little clunky, but with a little practice and some patience it can be done. The control issues did not in anyway take away from the enjoyment I got from this game. The fact that it is a paid game and not a "free to play" with hundreds of ads and other nuisances is another plus. Overall a really fun game. If you are into modern combat tactics or similar topics this game is for you.
