Raid: Shadow Legends is a cross-platform (originally mobile) game. This review is mainly for the PC version. Raid is a fairly polished game. The PC port is much better than most PC ports of triple-A titles. It's less buggy than even most triple-A titles that are developed specifically for PCs. It's a "gacha" game. You summon random hero characters (champions), level them up through short RPG-like battles, then sacrifice some heroes to power up your best heroes. The game is mostly single-player. The multi-player content doesn't require players to be online at the same time. For example, there are tournaments where players need to score the most points (in single-player activities) over a 3 day period. Graphics are fine, though not necessarily anything to rave about. Game-play and strategy have a lot of depth. The biggest issue is that Raid is pay-to-win. You can play it without spending anything, but you'll be at a disadvantage in multi-player activities. You also need to click through a flood of pop-ups every time you open the game.
