Pit People is one of those games that I enjoyed despite being terrible at the genre.  While the game can be simple compared to other games in the genre, the combination of the easy to pick up gameplay and the graphics and humor that The Behemoth is known for makes this a game worth checking out regardless of whether you've played other tactical RPGs or if this is your first one.  Plus, who doesn't want to hear a giant space bear taunt you throughout the game?
