Space Grunts combines fast paced arcade action with turn-based gameplay.
The year 2476, Earth's space-federation has been building moon-bases across the galaxy. One of those moon-bases has been sending a distress signal.
Space Grunts are a group of intergalactic "problem" solvers, sent to investigate..
You play one, out of a team, of Space Grunts, and your mission is simple: find your way into the moon-base, and figure out what has happened. You'll have to fight your way through aliens, robots, security drones and base-systems. Find the lower levels of the moon-base, and get to the core of the problems.
Consumables
A large collection of consumables can be found all over the moon base from weapon enhancers, to destructive toys, armor, explosives, system-hacks, and more. Use the items wisely to advance deeper into the moon-base.
Weapons
Starting with three standard Grunt weapons, you will be able to enhance them for more fire-power and range. On your way you'll also find alternate weapons, and melee weapons.
Secrets
There are various ways to complete the game, anomalies leading to weird places, underground routes, and mysterious items to transport you to other area's of the moon-base. On top of these there are secret rooms and area's located all over the base, so never a dull moment!
Can you find the core of the problems?

Ratings and Reviews
iPad Pro report
Not as good as was expected.
Gameplay is actually an enjoyable turn based rogue type game, though it appears you cannot save mid dungeon like most rogue games allow.
However it looks absolutely terrible on an iPad Pro. I don't mind pixilated graphics, but the pixels are way too big and it makes the whole game look like a bunch of mini colourful blocks. It is even a strain to read the in-game text. Perhaps it is a game more suited to an iPhone or a smaller iPad. But for me on an iPad Pro it is a sad let down.
Fun but clunky
Enjoyable roguelike that takes clear cues from the style of Nuclear Throne and the gameplay of Sword of the Stars: the Pit.
Mechanics work nicely in creating depth without great complexity, but the unresponsive on-screen control pad is frustrating to use, and the lack of diagonal shooting means lots of tiresome back-and-forth movement trying to line enemies up.
Definitely worth a couple of bucks, and watch for updates, but some clear room for improvement.
