8.0/10
Rulebook has some weird organizational choices. But the game really does feel like X-com.

Playing a campaign with my wife. Really enjoying it so far! It does really well at feeling like XCOM. Only complaint is that the rulebook has some...interesting wording choices and organization. Really looking forward to having a physical copy and some reference cards, might have to make some of my own... Other than that, would definitely recommend! Something else to note, my wife HATED the tutorial, but gave actual missions a shot and is loving them.
