SteamWorld Heist is the best Nintendo 3DS game released in 2015, and its multiple difficulties ensure that both new and veteran tactical gamers can have fun in its wonderful world of robot pirates.100We Got This Covered
What can I say, this is my kind of game! Awesome graphics, great gameplay with fun mechanics. And who doesn’t love a good fedora. I want more, and then some.100dirkwedger
SteamWorld Heist is another excellent game from the folks at Image & Form. While I wish that the skill trees were less linear, I honestly have nothing else to complain about.95NintendoWorldReport
While not a narrative that would be found in a larger-scale RPG, the story is engaging enough to make keeping track of all the various factions and personalities not only worthwhile, but entertaining.90Cubed3
If we had to pick a definitive steampunk space robot pirates tactical role playing strategy game, this one would have to take the cake. You will lose quite a lot of hours in SteamWorld Heist.90PLAY! Zine
Steamworld Heist is a ton of fun, and developer Image and Form are doing a great job of trying new things following the surprise success of Steamworld Dig.90DarkStation
The inventory system’s a little rusty but SteamWorld Heist still gives you plenty of bang for your buck. [Feb 2016, p.81]88Games Master UK
