I like Metal Slug Tactics for the same reason i like Fighting games:

I get to pick a cool character, think about my choices, and then get exciting moments in pursuit of solid choices and calculated risks.

It's fun as hell. A lil tactics game where each run only takes a few hours, with plenty of places to put it down and come back. The Rogue like element means each run is different and though you can unlock new starting builds and characters, nothing carries over from run to run.

Ralf, Clark, and Fio (pictured) is the KOF team I've always wanted and will never get lol.

I wish my friends liked KOF enough for me to commit to it. sigh... Ralf Clark Vanessa...

anyways! It's on Gamepass if you have that.

Ok i will DEFINITELY have to turn this into a longer post at howdoyouspell.cool/sodiumreact

But i like puzzle games. I think a lot about optimization and efficiency.

But MY puzzle games are all violent.

Metal Slug Tactics is a fantastic game about clearing obstacles and solving issues with a limited set of pieces each with constraints. Abstracted, it's about finding acceptable solutions to problems.

So is Lamplighters League. So is Devil Survivor. So was Fire Emblem (RIP)

So was... nah. I'll save that for the full article

Hidden Gem(s)

I will call this one hidden gem since it belongs one of the biggest gaming franchise.

Metal Slug 1st Mission is released for Neo Geo pocket, which feels much more platformer than a run and gun.

Graphics are amazing, and the gameplay is smooth, and spiced up with different vehicles.

The color palette can seem limited for some, but I think it is well utilized.

As a portable console game the speed of the game has drastically reduced compared to its arcade counterparts. However, for me this puts the game in a more unique place. Much more platforming as I mentioned before.

Hit boxes work quite effortlessly too.

Using the vehicles especially the plane is such a joy. It feels like a shmup. Which is great, I am quite a huge fan of shmups even though I suck at them.

Console limitations enable different creative expressions and Metal Slug 1st mission is one of them. Diverged from the main series still, it offered more platforming heavy experience.

One day, I was randomly navigating throughout the YouTube’s hellish maze and that is how I became aware of the Neo Geo Pocket.

This is the true joy of gaming sharing and talking about the hidden gems.

Metal Slug 1st Mission fits these criteria robustly.
