* AIRoulette: The Nazi opponents often don't act very tactically. In particular, the targets for buffs are chosen entirely randomly, and it's possible to see Officers and Paramedics wasting multiple turns on buffing themselves, when there are nearby allies much more in need of assistance.
* AllDeathsFinal: Characters killed during the battle will never come back.
* ArbitraryHeadcountLimit: Downplayed. You are always limited to four people in a squad, although the in-game justification is that larger groups would have even harder time avoiding the patrols. However, the Nazi patrols may possess a maximum of six soldiers, which makes for some truly brutal engagements.
* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: Averted with the Nazi Officers, who look sharper and more intimidating than the grunts under their command, but possess 65 HP, which is on the lower end compared to Riflemen with 70, flamethrower troops with 80 or Dog Handlers with 90, and deal mediocre damage with their pistol. Their main tactical value is in making the other combatants harder to kill through Rally Troops (which raises this game's equivalent to armor, Resilience), although it's possible that they'll just use it on themselves, or someone due to bleed out/burn to death on the next turn.
* BottomlessMagazines: Averted for the player. All the opponents, however, appear to suffer from no such shortages. Moreover, you currently do not get to loot any of their ammo, either.

* ConcussionFrags: Potato mashers thrown by the Nazi Grenadiers generally deal less damage than most firearms to compensate for their area of effect. Even then, they only target a couple of rows, and cannot those at the very back.
* CriticalExistenceFailure: Played straight for all the combatants. Weirdly, losing stamina from performing too many actions in a row actually inflicts debuffs on your troops' accuracy and resilience, while being nearly dead from multiple bullet and shrapnel wounds apparently has no effect on these.

Fighters located behind cover see most attacks targeting them get two rolls for accuracy; one for hitting the cover, another for actually hitting them, and a reduced damage even if it hits. Both your characters and the enemies with long Rifles (most notoriously the actual Snipers) possess attacks that can ignore cover, however.

Gameplay is divided between party management at HQ and crawling through the city of Warsaw to fight the Nazis. At HQ of you manage the health and status ailments of your party and decide which districts of the city to defend and which to slowly abandon to the Nazis. Out in the field, your party navigates the maze of Warsaw a la VideoGame/PacMan, hunting for supplies and trying to kill enough Nazis to repel the attack on the neighborhood. It's a slow grind, and few if any of your party may survive beyond [[CurbStompBattle the uprising's conclusion]].

''Warsaw'' is a UsefulNotes/WorldWarTwo DungeonCrawling RPG about the heroic and doomed uprising of the Polish Home Army and Resistance movements throughout Warsaw in 1944, developed by studio Pixelated Milk.
August 1, 1944. W-Hour. As the Red Army pushes west and the British, Free French, Canadians and Americans advance east across France, the defeat of Nazi Germany looks certain. Poland has been occupied by the Nazis since 1939 and the Polish Home Army now sees an opportunity to liberate the Polish capital of Warsaw as the Russians approach. They have worked tirelessly these past years stockpiling supplies and building intelligence networks, waiting for this moment.
At dawn, thousands of Poles take to the streets wielding pistols, rifles, [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B%C5%82yskawica_submachine_gun black-market submachine guns]], and [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kubu%C5%9B even home-made armored vehicles]] to drive out the Nazis.

* ChildSoldier: True to history, some of the troops you lead are literal children.
* WarIsHell: The graphics may be cell-shaded cartoons, but the Nazi flamethrowers the gut-wrenching decisions you're forced to make during battlefield events.
