Mewgenics review - catnip for turn-based strategy fans

  • On Feb. 10, Mewgenics, a turn-based strategy and cat-breeding roguelite, was released by developers Edmund McMillen and Tyler Glaiel.
  • Amid a return of turn-based strategy to indies, Mewgenics highlights this trend with credits listing just two people from a two-person development team.
  • You start by managing a team of felines, fielding four cats per run in isometric grid-based combat while using cat collars and genetics to breed with mutations and disorders.
  • Ahead of release, critics praised Mewgenics and GameCentral gave it a score of 8/10, while Edmund McMillen's contests engaged fans worldwide, boosting excitement with cat-acting challenges.
  • As one of the most complex strategy games in recent years, reviewers call Mewgenics ambitious but warn randomness and steep learning curve, plus interface/UI concerns, may limit niche strategy fans.
