Fights in Tight Spaces

“The intense card game creates a solid experience of fighting and Gun Fu.”

“Despite its issues, Fights in Tight Spaces is a fun and stylish take on the turn-based tactics genre that feels like it almost has a genre of its own.”

“With a great visual style and differently-themed take on roguelike deckbuilding, Fights in Tight Spaces makes a case for your attention”

“It takes a lot for a roguelike to feel truly fresh on Switch, but Fights in Tight Spaces does a great job of taking a well-worn format and making it feel just that. The turn-based combat means you'll constantly be weighing up the right strategy while the unique difficult levels mean that completing your first run is only the start of the fun. Though it isn't quite optimised for the Switch, it still looks and plays very well. Recommended.”

“Turn-based battles in Fights in Tight Spaces are great, but not always well balanced. Mainly due to very limited treatment options.”

“If you are a fan of action/tactical games, be sure to check Fights in Tight Places out.”

“Exciting, spectacular and fun, Fights in Tight Spaces is a fine candidate for a couple of evenings.”

“Sometimes a good idea is all you need, and Shatter Ground got a great one. The gamble of combining turn-based strategy with a card game and with the stylish fighting of Superhot ended up working quite well. I personally found Fights in Tight Spaces' roguelite mechanics a little frustrating, but it is a matter of taste and in any case the game offers five different difficulty settings. One last praise goes to the artistic & technical aspects of the game, minimalist yet functional and pleasantly rich in details.”

“Fights in Tight Spaces recreates that action movie feeling of stylishly dismantling a room full of goons.”

“Fights in Tight Spaces places itself in a unique position in the roguelike-deckbuilder genre. While the influence of games like Slay The Spire is apparent, the combat resolves in a very different way thanks to the introduction of a grid system and other turn-based tactics elements. The presentation is phenomenal and makes for an overall great game that is going to please fans of deckbuilders, tactic games and action movies buffs alike.”

“An excellent turn-based strategy that shines in spite of some minor annoyances.”

“Fights in Tight Spaces is a really unique and stylish take on the deck building genre with a level of strategy on offer that will be enough to keep people coming back for a long time. Fights in Tight Spaces is worth your attention.”

“The best thing I can say about Fights in Tight Spaces is that it's so easy to get lost in a run. You can start this game at 7 or 8 p.m. and it'll be midnight before you even know what's what. It takes a special kind of game for me to lay in bed overnight thinking about what my strategy will be the next day, but this one has done that. It's one of the best indie titles this year and will probably go down as one of my favorite roguelikes ever by the time this secret agent sits down to have his martini.”

“It's a great concept, and it's perfectly enjoyable, but it lacks the excitement and flourishes it needs to really come alive.”

“Fights in Tight Spaces is a stylish roguelike deck-builder that uses a clever resource system to back up some truly satisfying cardplay. While the amount of content is fairly light in its current Early Access state, what's there is fun, entertaining, and polished. It may not be as deep as some other card games out there, but I have no concerns about recommending Fights in Tight Spaces to fans of the deck-building genre, or simply those who love a good action movie.”

“Fights in Tight Spaces combines deck-building with clever tactics in a roguelike format that is as satisfying as it is punishing.”
