The hit Steam/Mobile game Breach&Clear has invaded Vita and if you like simulation games then look at this title. It has no microtransactions like
the mobile game had and it seems better like the steam counterpart is. You have a choice of 7 types of squads to choose from with each having a higher stat increase in one area. After selecting a squad you have a choice of 6 classes like breacher or fireteam leader with each having a large role in how you can do things in game. For instance a breacher can throw a grenade and move in the same turn.
There is also the marketplace where all those coins that you save come to use. From buying guns to the add ons (if your gun has the slots to equip it) along with gear for your squad like hats/helmets and clothes which may offer a slight boost or decrease. Last is consumables from lockpicks, breach charges and UAVs to detect enemies. Any unused items can be sold and before equipping a new gun make sure to take off the add ons.
A memorial is even in the game for when you play with permanent death on, fallen soilders will be shown and also you get a higher XP after each mission as well. There is alot of gameplay to this and short levels with rating system is how you unlock more levels and guns. 5 modes are included from easy, normal, hard, elite and the crazy insane mode. Later modes after normal gives you more chances for new stars.
Now missions are in 3 modes with each one I will go over. Terrorist hunt is the normal mode with your squad just hunting down the terrorist. Bomb defusal is finding the bombs and shutting them down with your squad over a certain amount of turns. Also of note: any terrorist will try to stop you so try and take down as many as you can. Last is escape plan where you are thrown into the enemies and need to escape. It's less planning on takedowns and more planning on finding your extract zone and making a good path to it. The areas these take place in are Afgananistan, Turkey, China, Germany, Mexico, Russia and Colombia each with a theme and China and Russia are fun levels as well.
So lots of stars to obtain as you can tell though each level is pretty quick but quick is not the best solution if you want to survive if playing on permanent death mode. Also after your squad hits certain levels you unlock perks mainly with what you are good with like level 5 your breacher gets increased grenade damage.
So if you like what you read then pick up the game it is digital but the folks at Limted Run Games @limitedrungames on Twitter have made it where they also made physical editions of the game as well so any physical prefered Vita players be sure to check them out.
Score 9.0
Pros: Lots Of Levels
Lots of eqipment choices that show
Variety of modes and areas to go
Cons: Menu font is small but you can manage to see what you need to
