One thing to note, it is completely possible to gold star every mission without paying for credits! After that, you have the ability to purchase credits though micro-transactions (which is annoying, since you bought the game), and you'll be able to buy more powerful weapons to use. Your experience unlocks more weapons and abilities that you can use, and experience is used to purchase them at the start of the missions for a one-mission use. Each mission has a 'target score' to reach, which earns you different 'star' levels, giving you gold if you complete the mission in the most efficient way possible, the higher the score (which can be amplifed by adding skulls), the more experience you gain. The way the game works, is that like Halo: Reach and Halo 4, you gain experience through kills, and daily/weekly challenges. You start the mission by selecting your loadout and 'skulls', which enchance your exp gain. They both definitely have their merits, but for those of you reading who have a touchscreen device, the touchscreen controls are phenomenal!Ĭurrently, the game has five chapters, with five missions in each one. You can use either a keyboard/mouse if you are on a desktop, or touchscreen if you have that available to you.

This top down shooter has a lot of fun play features, from the ability to play with many of the guns from the Halo universe, to access to tanks and turrets! As it is available for Windows 8, you have two choices for controls depending on the device you are using. The play style of Halo: Spartan Assault, is very similar to that of a free Steam game, called Alien Swarm. The Halo series has always had a firm grasp of good control and play style.
