SteamWorld Heist Aim Every Shot Yourself

There are no hit percentages here. No dice rolls, no 80% chance and a miss anyway: you line up the laser sight, the crosshair wobbles a bit, and where you aim is where the bullet goes. Walls become tools. A shot can ricochet off a surface and hit an enemy cowering behind cover, and lining up a clean bounce feels like sinking a snooker ball. Grenades and other thrown weapons fly in an arc, so range and angle matter. Every turn becomes a small geometry puzzle instead of a gamble, and pulling off a trick shot you had no business making is the reason to keep going.

You play Captain Piper Faraday, a smuggler scraping out a living on the edge of a shattered system, where water is the resource everything runs on. You recruit robots with their own roles and abilities, then decide who boards which ship: some missions want a full party of four, others send a single bot in alone. Between jobs you spend your earnings on weapons, gear and new skills, and what you equip genuinely changes how a fight plays out. Also, hats. Collecting them is a proper side pursuit, and a well-armed robot in a fine hat is a joy to command.
