Also apparently doesn't work on some other major series of hardware/software.
It's actually a pretty fun game. But, now i can't play it so thumbs down.

Absolute crap game, gameplay is the most boring and slow turned based game i've ever had the displeasure of playing if i could refund the game i would but since i've bought it a long time ago i can't even get my 15€ back, game isn't even worth 5€.
Barely any progression in beetwen mission except upgrades for a random card system and a couple of weapon unlocks for your squad.
Playing as either the Terminators or the Genestealers feels like ass especially when you clearly see that AI does not play by the same rules as you would if you were playing as their faction, you play as the Terminators? Oh RNG is weighted against you so your guys will miss every overwatch shoot leading to them dying as soon as an enemy reaches them.
Oh yes also weapon gets jammed real quick if you roll a double. Shoots outside overwatch? 31% chance to hit or 54% at max, meanwhile you are playing as Genestealers? Well the enemy Terminators will mow down your horde of xenos without EVER MISSING A SHOOT, or their weapons getting jammed.
YOU LITERALLY CANNOT GET CLOSE TO THEM despite sending 7 genestealers at a single one of them, they somehow have a 95% to hit.
Wouldn't play this game if i was payed to, absolute stinker, it's just one of those going on the list of bad WH40K games.

I'm playing with great excitement because I'm a fan of the classic Space Hulk style, where the rules are unforgiving, and any mistake can be fatal. The maps follow the design of the original board game, and the first-person mode provides a "realistic" feeling of walking in a heavy tactical suit through claustrophobic industrial corridors. The action scenes are even more intense in this format.
Although the Indomitus Armor is known as a defensive stronghold and makes wielding heavy weapons easier, enemies can still tear an Astartes apart with ease. I appreciate the animations showing Genestealers striking weak points like the head and abdomen. Many players complain about how easily Terminators fall, but these creatures have claws sharp enough to rip through tanks to reach the crew. There’s no room for epic battles here—just a deadly duel in narrow corridors where the first to land a killing blow wins.
The game preserves the classic board game rules and missions, demanding extreme caution with every step and ability used. Any miscalculation can cost a Marine. The card system never disappoints, always offering some advantage, whether in action points or skill improvements.
The map interface is intuitive, and the gameplay rewards patience, turning every encounter into a real threat. Overcoming enemies feels incredibly satisfying; With each enemy killed, you feel great and more attached to the astarte. The campaign and story are simple, the models are stunning, and so far, I’ve encountered very few bugs—nothing that ruins the experience.

Simple and fun game for lovers of the original board game. Had to do some technical work around to get past a loading error for the game but given its so cheap this wasn't a big problem.

I can't understand the mixed review for this game. its pretty much spot on to the 3rd and 4th edition board game in regards to rules.
i like the fact theirs a decent narrative and commentary in between missions and game play is decent as well .
if your looking to brush up or actual learn how to play the BG on table top then it dose a pretty good job of teaching you the rules .
