One of the interesting challenges with Iron Danger is that it is often very hard to put game with so unique game mechanics into specific genre or category.

We have been telling to people that it is pretty much tactical RPG, but on the other hand it is very streamlined experienced with no grinding.

In addition we have been telling that is sort of combination of simultaneous real-time action and very tactical combat that plays a lot like turn-based game. Time rewinding bringing even puzzle-like aspect to the tactics.

Quite often it is easier to let people try it and figure out that it is something very different.

To make it clear for us of how people would categorize the game, we decided also ask opinion of the players.
We had our community beta testing during December, and one question we asked from participants to tell us which categories they think Iron Danger belongs to.
We had long list of categories to pick and even possibility to add your own.
You were allowed to select multiple categories.

The most voted categories were following (with percentage of testers placing Iron Danger into that category):
1. Tactical RPG 71.8%
2. Adventure 56.5%
3. RPG 54.1%
4. Strategy 44.7%
5. Turn-based 37.6%
6. Action 35.3%
7. Puzzle 20%

I'd call it quite an interesting combination.

So, if you have been wondering into which slot you'd put Iron Danger, there is quite a blend for you to pick your favorite while waiting for the release to try it yourself!
