Through the darkest of days, they'll ride out into the sunset With wheels of iron and hearts in the stars Each section could use more cosmetic variety in its levels.You know a brigher day's just a way ahead, what we need are some heroes.Procedurally generated levels keep action fresh.At least everyone will eventually get the chance to wear snazzy hats and be the badass robot space pirate they were always meant to be. For those who don’t have a 3DS fear not, as it will also be released for every major platform throughout 2016. At the time of writing this, the game is currently only on the Nintendo 3DS, and it’s a perfect fit. It’s hard not to love a game where characters yell “Fiddlesticks!” while in peril.

Becoming a robotic tactician never felt so good with its stellar combat mechanics. It’s simple yet ambitious with a presentation as charming as its execution.

Piper makes a worthy protagonist whose authority is never questioned.
