came so close to being good... Just needed less of the budget spent on acting and more on levels units and maps... But its a classic style rts so that's something

While it was not the easiest game to initially learn, once you get the hang of it, it can be pretty fun. I didn't enjoy the way it played as much compared to C&C games, but the story kept me going and was worth the price I paid for the game being on sale. Worth trying if you like RTS games.

Old school RTS game from the people who made Empire at War. Horribly underrated gem of a game. Deserves much more love than it got.

It's admirable to see a studio like this take on the big boys with such an ambitious game. It has clear influences from classic RTS games like Starcraft and Command & Conquer, which is why it caught my eye. There just aren't many games like this around these days and I do miss them. Grey Goo may scratch that itch, but it's clear that they didn't have the same budget as their inspirations. The cutscenes are impressive, but the story is only serviceable and is a little predictable (not helped by them spoiling one of the major 'twists' on the box art!). It also ends on a cliffhanger that I suspect will never be resolved! Gameplay is pretty solid, and the three races feel distinctive. Each campaign map also introduces new challenges, units and gimmicks. However, it feels like you spend a lot of time with The Goo, who - to me at least - are the least fun to actually play. It's a nice little throwback to the heyday of the RTS, just don't expect a product that can truly compete with the classics.
