Which all means Chroma Squad is a bit like candyfloss – awfully sweet, and nice to eat, but ultimately insubstantial. That doesn’t make it a bad game, and how Chroma Squad was made explains why. This exists because the developers kickstarted a Power Rangers-inspired strategy game, got funded, and you have to say they delivered exactly what the backers wanted: as a fan of turn-based tactics I have reservations, but as a super sentai fan’s dream game it’s brilliant. Crammed with in-jokes, cool costumes and giant mech customisation options, it’s the best Power Rangers game we never got. And that is surely the point.
