Tactera is a Real-Time Strategy game played on a “virtual tabletop”. It is the winner of the Casual Connect Indie Prize, winner of a Proto Award, and was a Mobile VR Jam Finalist.
Inside a futuristic war room, a 3D hologram shows two armies on the verge of battle. You are the tactical mastermind who must command your troops to victory. Build swarms of gunships, tanks, bombers, and other units, and use your hi-tech view of the battlefield to strategically outmaneuver the enemy!
“Tactera is a wonderful tactical game that is easy to learn and challenging to master. 9/10” - Mobile VR Daily
“Tactera is different, not only because it’s simplified real time strategy, not only because it automates a lot of the more mediocre parts of the genre, not only because it’s a faster paced tactical game, but because it’s designed for Virtual Reality from the ground up.” - VR Perception

Been playing this for the last hour or so and it's great!! Love how the units have little battles and take on bases, really fun to mix up which you choose. Expect to get lots of gameplay out of this.

It's a really fun game but more maps and harder difficulty would be nice. Definitely worth the money though.

The game is quite fun once you get the hang of it, and you can spend a lot of time playing and still enjoy it. However, the developer could make a few easy tweaks that would make the game so much better. 1) It would be great to be able to go back to an easier difficulty in campaign mode. You are currently forced to move up for some reason and cannot even reset it. 2) The requirement to rotate units is annoying, especially given that the AI can use the same units and strategy round after round. I would like to be able to choose whatever unit I want, or else free them up every other battle. At the very least, the AI shouldn't get to use the same units repeatedly when you cannot. 3) Would be great to be able to personally command all my battles. Having chance decide other battles is very annoying in the higher levels as the odds are not in your favor. Not sure why this would be hard to add into the game.

I think this game has a solid foundation and potential to be great. I have three problems with it that are really hindering my enjoyment of the game. 1. Units do not always listen to calls, I will tell my units to move to another area and they will acknowledge the command but not move. 2. There's no reset level or quit level option. The tutorial isn't really enough as it doesn't go over all of the details of the game, so you're immediately thrust into it and when you make a mistake you can't reset it. 3. There's no speed up option. In almost all RTS games you can speed the game forward, this takes so long because you simply have to sit and wait at all points of the game.

I run a VR program twice a week for youth in a juvenile detention center. I am always looking for content that challenges their minds, help them be more strategic in their decision making. This game delivers like few others. It has become an instant hit amongst the youth. The ability to easily connect and play against each other helps immensely. I run four Quests and three Gos, and the cross platform play is excellent. I am also a veteran so I'm able to later expand their military understanding with educational videos of what the are doing and what it looks like in real world. I will say again, powerful tool for this population in learning and practicing strategic skills.
