The definition of games, according to a dictionary;
An activity that one engages in for amusement.
And, Tactics is fun!
Mech Mice Tactics isn't fun to me. Probably because I don't like being slow and having to wait for my turn.
I don't think MM Tactics should stay. It's turn-based which doesn't contribute a whole lot to our learning. Is our life turn-based? No. In Academy there are more tactics that you can use, it's only the smart ones that can come up with tactics, while in MM you're pretty much forced to use tactics.
