The fact that it provides a distinct advantage to use your characters intelligently in this real-time roaming gameplay creates a real need to stop and analyze the situation before executing your plan to perfection. It is quite a rewarding balance between free-roaming around the various sectors of The Zone to gather scrap, weapon parts and artifacts (used to purchase and upgrade your equipment and unlock special team-wide abilities) and maneuvering around your opponents to isolate and silently take down as many as possible before engaging in full-scale combat. One thing that becomes immediately evident is how seamlessly Mutant Year Zero: Road to Eden combines its real-time stealth and exploration with its turn-based tactical combat. Nevertheless, the game does explain everything that you and your opponents are doing, just in a less structured manner. I personally learn best when I get a true-blue tutorial that gives me a solid foundation for gameplay and mechanics. The various controls and mechanics are explained to you in a hasty, as-they-come-up fashion, which is a bit of an issue for me.

This is the basis of your squad, which you will add to later, whom you control as you navigate the dangers of The Zone. Upon starting the game for the first time, you find yourself immediately thrown into the action and in control of two lovable misfit mutant stalkers, Bormin and Dux. As I am unfamiliar with the original game I cannot speak to its authenticity but from what I have read from others, the setting and lore remain very true to the tabletop version, which is always a relief for games that are adapted from older formats. Mutant Year Zero: Road to Eden is based off of the tabletop game, Mutant Year Zero. The devs draw this parallel themselves, and with the two so closely linked, one has to wonder if Mutant Year Zero can do enough to set itself apart from its own inspiration.

Released last December by developer The Bearded Ladies Consulting and publisher Funcom, Mutant Year Zero: Road to Eden is a turn-based tactical RPG that utilizes elements of real-time stealth and an intriguing storyline to bring an experience that can only be described as a next-level XCOM.
