Just a great way to enjoy an hour of downtime after work.
Super fun squad game about gentle guys bringing care packages to their neighbors.
I'm not a good door kicker. I prefer to equip AT4's, slap and breaching charges on all missions, even the hostage ones. This game, however, kicks a lot of door. The squad skill bonuses are awesome, the soldiers gain individual experience and stats, their loadouts are completely customizable and realistic. The campaigns and missions are dynamic and fast paced, and are a hoot and a holler to play through. The game has rewards and risks. On Ironman it really sucks to lose soldiers during campaigns. There are a lot of community made maps, and I'm working on making my own to share. Great game, good work devs.

适合消遣时间，也适合认真研究战术计划。有些玩法很有创意
缺点是部分动作有限制，一些合理且连贯的动作因为限制无法完成，希望可以优化
used AT-4s to conduct room clearing
Świetna gra, każdych pieniędzy warta!
Solid planning and execution training for CQB. A lot of challenging scenarios for the born tacticians.
A like this Game,is Biutiful:)
玩過生存遊戲的玩家一定會喜歡這款遊戲
Still early days but after reading up on some CQB tactics, I managed to get the hang of it with only a few soldiers KIA in some missions. We are taking some hits but body armour for the most part works. When a plan goes well then wow, so exhilerating. My best was an early FNG missing that is a timed execution, no time for clearing just speed and VOA all the way. Twenty seconds, all operators unharmed, three stars and absolutely cinematic.
good game
Excellent game, great deal of replay
好玩，烧脑
Tough and unforgiving if you want 3 stars, but fun nevertheless
My preparation before signing up to russian army
PEAK GAME very addicting
Dis da GOAT for top down tactical shooters and can run on a literall potato, nuff said.
Ce jeu est une pépite, visuellement comme tactiquement rien a re dire. chaque décision compte et pousse a la réflexion. Ci vous aimez la tactique, la strategie, et la prise de décision foncez.
mükemmel dışarıadn basit gözüken ama zor olan oyun acaiyp iyi
oynayın oynatın
nice game, much fun
Very fun, optimized, not hard to play (easy to learn). beautiful graphics
This game is dumb and the first mission doesn't teach you anything besides how to look, doesn't explain anything about the game, and barely tries to help you learn the mechanics beyond "move the person and they'll shoot". It doesn't explain that you should expect enemies to randomly appear behind you or shoot through walls at you. L game
Oh My God This Is A Good Game.
great game, with a friend even better
spending 113 hours on this game i just can't get enough
have no idea how to play. very cool.
战斗！爽！
played coop online with a rando, we tried 50 times to beat a mission that had 3 bombs and 3 suicide bombers and a hostage. we blew up e very time somehow. 10/10.
Also had a shield guy somehow protect us from 2 suicide bombers at the same time. Absolute Legend from the Nowhereski SWAT.
ALso if you play CIA you can spawn as a fake enemy and get absolutely annihiliated when you try to pull out a flash bang for no reason. Because that's suspicious!
This game is a riot! Have fun!

i really liked the original door kickers, this is more of that but with a lot of QOL stuff. for example, the ability to easily edit paths and make changes without messing up other sections is huge. haven't tried co-op yet, but that sounds like an awesome edition combined with the randomly generated mission maker.
ready or not and this on a cycle lowkey peak, door kickers 2 very replayable you should get it twin trust
Well done and a lot of replayability trying to perfect missions. Hits me in the same vibes as the old Rainbow Six 1-3.
very fun
全靠创意工坊支撑着自己玩下去
It strikes the perfect balance between realism and fun.
Gameplay: 10/10 The variety of gadgets and maps make almost every mission feel fresh. The maps are very well-designed, they offer unique challenges with their different layouts. On top of all this, you can play with different squads, and each squad has troops with different classes. You can improve your soldiers by playing with them and your squad by upgrading a skill-tree, so there is room for improvement, even well into hours into the game.
Combat: 8/10 Enemies don’t seem to be the smartest, but not dumb enough to ruin immersion. The enemy variety keeps combat fresh and exciting.
Sound: 6,5/10 It gets the job done.
Visuals: 8/10 It’s surprisingly good, better than most isometric shooters I know.
Performance: 10/10 Check the system requirements to be sure, but I think anything can run this thing basically.
Absolutny banger, wart każdych pieniędzy. Polecam każdemu
Excelente Juego.
7/10
The same tactical experience as the first game, but is a one step forward, several back situation.
The AI is more aggressive and responsive than the original, which makes runs far less predictable. Unfortunately, your units didn't get much an improvement in that reguard. they will still fallow the plan to a fault, and not do common sense things like check corners with out you ordering it, or ignore an enemy they just saw and keep going. Still, it is a more intense experience.
They dropped the sawt them in place for a military, which makes sense due to the fact that officers shot on sight and there was little reason to make arrests in the first game. This also means there are some new high profile toys to play with, such as launchers. Though, that also means some were taken away. Shotgun are almost non existant, and shields and tasers are completely gone. This would be fine, if there weren't less guns to work with as well. And many of them are locked to a specific group, which there are 3. Some are also locked behind campaign stars which require grinding the campaigns to obtain. It also doesn't help that you have to play a number of the single missions to unlock the deceptively named SWAT which are more like a militia, and the stealth based CIA. And when you do, they start at lvl1. so unless you want to do more grinding, you're probably going to stick with the rangers.
There is a solid amount of content in the game. There are plenty of single missions available, split up into different categories (IE hostage rescue, stealth based). There are also six campaigns. two tours that are randomly generated and you get the option to end them every 7 days, or keep going for more campaign stars. I was not a fan of these. And 4 operations that play like the first game's campaigns, which IMO are far better than the tours. Another step back, is permadeath is now locked behind ironman mode, which does take away some of the intensity of the campaigns unless you want to deal with only having one attempt per mission. There's also a mission generator and a map editor with workshop support, so you will get your monies worth.
It's a solid, but safe sequel that makes some improvements, but makes a few missteps and I feel like the first game was better. Especially after the long development and EA cycle it went through, it should have been more.
Amazing
pretty fun
amazing game
Awesome game cant wait for more updates
door
I like the shotgun
O jogo é bom demais e ainda por cima roda em PC fraco o que é melhor ainda!
the best
Однозначно лайк, прикольно зроблена тактична гра про пецназ і зачистку кишлаків/будівель з видом зверху
трохи треба думати що хто буде робити
very fun to do single plans
好玩，策略性高，有点难，新手上手应该很慢。
Lots of fun!
Au top, avec quelques mods, ce jeu de est un bijou.
Great game
好玩，爱玩
I ONLY HAVE 4 HOURS this is THE BEST CQB GAME ON STEAM and its 12$ if you get on sale defintly worth it
Great game to simulating CQB tactics and mixed team tactics between all levels of escalation from deploying as federal government agents to SWAT response to active warfare. Nice variety of environments and settings to express your strategy and tactics in different contexts. Very fun to play with friends in my opinion; but, can be a bit odd adjusting to the time pause mechanic when playing with someone else.
This is not a game you can mindlessly play on usual gamer instinct. You will need to know at-least an introductory level of clearing concepts and how to stay alive in an actual firefight. So you're gonna die if you can't conceptualize. Which is why I love it, only the strong survive.
I AM CAGISTANS STRONGEST WARRIOR
毋庸置疑，最好的俯视角CQB游戏
最令我感到舒心的就是相比一代拥有了shift键一键切角功能，极大利好限制突入型战术的玩家
创意工坊的巨量优质模组使得2代相比一代更加耐玩
总而言之，不玩dk2，你的tacticool生涯是缺失的，有遗憾的
不过OST好像没有一代溜的爽（？）
可以给9分，同赛道最好的游戏了
个别关卡意义不明，点名步入幽灵之境，三个上锁大铁门重开先来看一分钟神秘撬锁男
拯救人质的最后一关，救特战小队那个，有一定运气成分，运气不好狙击手开局直接被rpg炸死。
除了这种问题以外其他都非常好了
补充一下，CIA做的很差，纯折磨人。不如全用游骑兵
This is the best non-puzzle puzzle game I've ever played. I love spending countless minutes (and even hours on some) planning the mission to try to do single plan and no pause even if there is no medal to obtain.
The replay value is amazing, with the provided random mission generator and a lot of mods and maps in the workshop.
[hr][/hr]Having said that, there are some things that are very frustrating to me, or some places where more options would be great:
- Sometimes, when trying to sync a door opening or similar, a unit that is not assigned the action of breaching may have had the action auto-set before reaching the mark (go code) if the path brings the unit close to the door (but not through), and will stay put and then the synced action won't execute until this is dealt manually.
- For single, and big, plan missions, the amount of actions and paths that may interpolate can be significant, which can end up making you delete/overwrite parts of the plan or spending minutes trying to put the mouse on the specific pixel so that you can edit or insert an action in the spot you want.
- Again, for single plans, if trying to use a rocket to make an opening, unlike with breaching walls, the game doesn't take into account that that wall will not be there after the rocket explodes, so sometimes you have to end up going through a window or having to breach a door that is next to what used to be a wall.
- This I can kind of live without, but it would be great if we could queue actions on a specific node instead of having to create new nodes next to each other if you need different actions done from a single location, e.g. from the same node: look this way -> wait for go code X -> toggle silent mode -> wait for clear or other go code -> throw grenade somewhere -> toggle run, and then onto the next node.
- Another improvement could be the option to set or time the order of actions in a synced go code plan moment, like maybe being able to move one unit after they or another throws a grenade but before it detonates, or on a breach and flash, do the breach like 0.5 seconds after the other unit starts the action of throwing the flash so you don't have to stay with the door open while the other unit is still pulling the pin.
- Also kind of related to the first point I made, an option to save the current status of the plan so that you can load it if you accidentally delete a part or for any other reason would help. Currently, a way to do it is to start/execute the mission with the current plan and then restart, that way if you later need to go back to the plan state from before, you exit the mission (without starting/executing it) and load it again. However, albeit I still haven't started it, in Ironman mode for campaigns this does not seem possible since you cannot do restarts.
- And the last thing I can think of at this moment is if you could kind of set a "protocol" of actions during a path between nodes for multiple units, like maybe one unit stops moving if their synced partner is currently engaged, so that you don't lose that engaged unit's cover on a future point where you need it after you continue the path and, therefore, has to wait until the other one is free (this is not the best example and I swear I had a better one where this option would help a lot but I forgot it while writing the review, fml).
[hr][/hr]Nevertheless, the game is still amazing and will keep sinking a ton of hours into it.
This is how I see Mercy gameplay sometimes and I very much recommend this to people who want to get better at first person shooter games online. It doesn't have bullet pen through walls and I wish it had more nuanced commands for single soldier replays.
In theory this should help people practice slicing the pie, and understanding "angles" and the theory of taking space with a ranged character. Space would be sort of like a bishop looking at an open board in chess in the end game/ with less pawns on the board.
I believe in myself that I can lower my own ptsd/ or more specifically heightened stress response and treat myself as attempting to have a no death run on helldivers 2. This looks like Jinx to me if you squint at it really really hard (Yes I know I am obsessed ugh), except I personally believe the ICD 11 is correct. Lincoln and Teddy were suicidal as well and they were the commanders in chief. I personally believe its because they saw and were the leaders of people being crappy to each other almost like now in 2026. Time is money, follow where is the money flowing online.
Maybe someday war will become like hey lets choose 1000 of our best soldiers and have an equipment allowance for tanks, drones and stuff and we both say go at it like the gladiator games from Rome. Let it be spectized!! The purpose would be to show off a nations strength with less casualties saying to other nations hey we can absolutely decimate you but were playing nice. But until then we are all pawns in a game of chess between multiple foreign leaders where the leaders probably know each other pretty well.
Door Kickers 2: Task Force North is the best top-down tactical shooter, super strategic with real-time planning, pausing to sync breaches, suppressive fire, and destructible environments. It's addicting as hell, way better than the first in maps and squad control, finally hit 1.0 in Feb 2025 after years in early access.
Updates take forever though, long gaps like almost a year in 2023, and patches still feel slow even now.
Workshop is killer: thousands of community missions/mods via Steam, plus a solid editor for custom levels that keeps it fresh forever. Highly recommend for tactic fans!
HI
Amazing Tactical Strat Game. Love the way all the mechanics work and come together. Easy game to hop in and out of.
i just wonder if sometimes my guys are just retarded to the point they'll ignore some corners, but overall i love this game
10/10 recommended for those who have a problem with doors lmao
breached a room with ten rangers, suicide bomber blew up half the building and all of my men. 10/10
比起初代来说游戏整体的画质更加细腻了，在保留前作核心玩法的同时，通过画面升级与细节填充，大幅提升了战场沉浸感，任务中的建筑结构也更加复杂，游戏的核心玩法则是“实时暂停-规划-执行”，玩家可以实时操控每个队员的行动，为其分配战术，破门、破窗、排点，每个指令的下达都挺重要的，不过游戏也可以通过暂停规划来缓解指令下达时的压力，暂停期间可以预设每一位队员的行动路径以及战术指令，类似于时间轴的规划，玩家可命令士兵破窗投掷闪光弹、利用炸药定向爆破墙体开辟新路径，和沉浸式的第一人称cqb相比本作的体验更像是下棋的那种策略博弈，玩法丰富度提高了很多，十分推荐！
peak better with friends tho
This game is very difficult and I have spent hours on a single level, but it becomes a personal challenge to clear a building with no casualties. Honestly a super intense game, the only thing that helps is the pause to make it a little more possible for me :) I would recommend this game to anyone willing to actually think tactically and that wants a more complex and realistic game then the average "shoot the bad guys" game.
Edit: The game also frequently crashes under AMD during the mission so it's not part of their FAQ.
CIA constantly losing to Grunt insurgents despite training. Pure realism. And I really mean in terms of accuracy.
une pepite !!!
Gameplay far deeper than you think, makes you think, and a wonderful modding community
it's good
I love CQB, i love throwing 10 grenades into a 1x1m room.
射線管理メインの1ユニット=1人のRTS。一時停止してユニットの行動を事前に入力できるのでプロット入力式とも言えるが、必ずしも全てのユニットの全ての行動を事前に入力する必要はないので、緩く楽しむことも可能。普段はポーズを解除して1ユニットずつ動かしつつ、複数ユニットに同時突入して欲しい場面だけポーズしてプロット入力する、といった遊び方ができる。
また、RPG的な成長要素があるので、初見でクリアできなくても分隊が成長してから戻ってくるとクリアできたりして、この手のゲームとしてはカジュアル勢に対して間口が広いと思う。
一方で、より高度なチャレンジを望むプレイヤーは、負傷や戦死が引き継がれるキャンペーンモードでシビアな戦いに挑んだり、個別ミッションに設定されている「無傷でクリア」「配置人数1人でクリア」といった勲章の解除に取り組むことも出来る。
ただし、ゲームの性質上、トライアンドエラーを繰り返せば「コマンド総当たり」的にいつかはクリアできるので、慣れてくるとどうしても作業感が出てしまうのは残念なところ。やりこみを始めた時よりも、ゲームメカニクスの理解が進み、分隊が少しずつ育ってきたあたりが一番面白かった。
値段相応には楽しめたので「おすすめ」だが、ゲームシステムとやりこみ要素の相性の悪さが、人によっては気になるかもしれない。
Im responsible for the death of 10,000 innocent operators
Their deaths are in vein and I now live with the guilt forever
10/10 free ptsd with every purchase
有挑战的游戏
When you spend hours optimizing a perfect plan that has no stops and should (in theory) complete the mission without any pauses or hiccups. just for your entire team to get slimed out by a suicide bomber
后期操作繁琐到令人发指，但总体十分好玩有趣。
My friend called A-10 airstrike, my squad was hit and everybody died. No enemy has died during that run. Very realistic. 10/10
I recommend, it is very realistic, because the CAS kills more allied units and civilians than hostile units, 10/10
me me big brain game
love and hate it. s vests are very annoying. 10/10 though. frag every single bathroom.
This game really got me learning CQB
没有平替的游戏作品，如果能加入更多战术动作那就非常奈斯了
支持mod让这游戏在我心中上升到了前所未有的高度
I'm telling you, Nowheraki DEFINITELY has WMDs.
Great game, very fun on Steam Deck. Rangers basically become apex predators after a few good campaigns.
I honestly didnt believe the very positive reviews. Big mistake on my part. This is really a good game with lots of mod support. It reminds me a little of the old swat games a bit. Probably the best cqb game there is really to be honest.
Absolutes Suchtspiel, für zwischendurch oder auch längere Sessions.
Wirklich empfehlenswert, vorallem Kampagne im Ironman Modus, sehr schmerzhaft wenn man erfahrene Kameraden seines Sealteams verliert.
Übrigens kann man jeden Soldaten einzeln anpassen, mit Namen und Aussehen und natürlich die passende Ausrüstung für den jeweiligen Einsatz.
Top Game!!
Excellent tactical game, had a lot of fun playing the different squad types, trying to solo it like an rpg or trying to plan the whole mission down to the last detail and just hit play and watch it work out perfectly (after much trial and error). Also it is serious fun playing with a friend trying to coordinate each other's tactics.
I don't get it.

I bought Door Kickers 2 thinking it would be a cool tactical game where I carefully plan missions and execute flawless special forces operations.
What actually happens is I spend 15 minutes making the perfect plan… only for one guy to open a door and immediately get turned into Swiss cheese by a dude hiding behind a couch.
The planning system is awesome though. You draw paths, stack operators on doors, throw flashbangs, clear rooms like a real tactical genius. For a brief moment, you feel like you’re running the most elite counter-terror unit in the world.
Then the plan starts.
Suddenly:
Someone forgot to check a corner.
One terrorist has the reaction time of a caffeinated hummingbird.
My entire squad collapses because a guy in flip-flops with an AK appeared from the bathroom.
The game teaches you a lot about tactics though. For example:
Rule #1: Every room has a guy with a shotgun.
Rule #2: If you think the room is clear, it isn’t.
Rule #3: Bathrooms are the most dangerous location on earth.
What makes it addictive is when everything actually works. Your team breaches two doors at once, flashbang goes off, enemies drop instantly, and the whole operation looks like a scene from a military movie.
Then the next mission starts and your breacher dies opening the first door again.
Pros
Extremely satisfying tactical gameplay
Planning system makes you feel like a military genius
Huge replay value
Cons
Terrorists apparently have wallhacks
One mistake = mission ruined
My squad has died so many times they should qualify for military pensions
