Platform: 3DS
Session fun rating: 8/10
Queen Victoria is aboard the Lady Liberty airship with Abe Lincoln. The president is trying to convince the queen to come to America to hide from the alien invaders. That's when a large alien started attacking our ship. The monster acted as a sort of artillery cannon, launching large rounds of highly dangerous material.
The S.T.E.A.M. agents jumped out and went on to attack the monster. In the first of two missions, I had the opportunity to use a large cannon to deal heavy damage from a safe position. I also used some of the new sub weapons I acquired including a really cool Shuriken gun that shoots out three projectiles at different angles. I also used a powerful shotgun that works wonders in close range, but is limited otherwise.
The next mission added a fourth member to our squad, Tiger Lily. She is a young woman who specializes in healing, though she can use sub weapons like everyone else. The mission was easily the most difficult yet. Not only where there many high powered enemies, but there were also some "eyes" that could trigger very strong artillery attacks from the monster if in sight of one of my soldiers.
In fact, I had to use the newly unlocked "specials" that were made available to succeed. These attacks deal high damage, stun or heal in a large area, but can only be used once per battle. It's a nice mechanic. I used most of them near the very end as I was fighting the large monster and was nearing death to win! Unfortunately, as we hopped back into the airship, a bunch of angry aliens shot us and heavily damaged the Lady Liberty.
