Story aside, the gameplay within the sandbox environment is really fun and lends itself to great gameplay moments, whether you're sneaking around in a box, driving over enemy soldiers, mowing down reinforcements with a machine gun, sniping from afar using tranquilizer darts, and more. I'd argue it's the best MGS game in gameplay.

I wasn't expecting to enjoy this game so much as I didn't get so hooked with a certain other indie rogue-lite, but it really pulled me in. The gameplay feel and loop just feel really good for some reason, as you slowly find more powerful and varied weapons while you parry and dodge dozens of enemies, all while you collect cells to spend on permanent unlocks. Even if you're not a fan of rogue-lites, you might get a kick out of this game (consider using assist mode even).
A wholly unique take on a fighting game, being turn-based allows for the kinds of fights that you'd only imagine or see in Flipnote animations. Obviously a proper matchmaking system and some ways to ease players into the experience would help, but the core gameplay was cool enough for me to ignore being pulverised for my first few matches.
