Great game - wish there was more story... – Invisible, Inc. Review

Fantastic strategic gameplay with well thought out mechanics, beautiful art/style, and a solid story. I'm giving it a five regardless of the one area I think it could have explored that would have made it a masterpiece. I feel like there is a huge missed opportunity in the story. It's clear the developers have put thought into the backstory of the characters and corporations. Like a strategy game like Starcraft, this could have been built with a progressive story that explored the world of invisible inc, and all of the various corporations it attacks. It could have done the same with backstory of the characters. Instead of unlocking them maybe you get them to join over time with all of that leading up to the story we get. Great gameplay - but having to replay the same story over and over gets tedious. It seems like the engine is so strong that some preconfigured scenarios that build up the players experience, flesh out the world, and grow an attachment to the characters, would have been an even more impressive approach.
