One of the best strategies I've ever played—if not the best. Unlike others, Z forces you to make decisions rather than just sitting in a dark corner, waiting for your resources to outgrow the opponent's. No, you have to move, face your fears head-on, and stay in constant motion. It is brilliant in all aspects. It was incredible in 1997, and it still is in 2025. Thanks guys.

Though I haven't played this game for very long, and I understand some of the complaints around this game it is still a fun straight forward simple RTS. No Based building or resource management but territory control is definitely the key to victory. The more territories the more manufacturing you have. I never played this game originally but it came up on my Radar when Evercade announced one of its newest game carts would have this game so I had to try it on PC before buying it on a console. I love all the personality around this game and the charm. Love LOVE LOVE the Robots in this game. Before going into it i expected battle droids from star wars but what I got was the commando elite from Small soldiers and I am all for it!!

For nostalgia enjoyers. For anyone new controls are god tier bad, multiple displays fucks up mouse, couple crashes, instant 0 to 100 gameplay afk first 15 sec and it snowballs out your control but the simple gameplay is fun. Throwing one dollar on sale reasonable, one can only hope it goes to the actually devs.

A classic RTS from the mid-to-late 1990s. Does it hold it today? Somehow. The controls are a bit "special" sometimes but it is overall still a fun bout. The pixel graphics hold up quite nicely and the chaotic energy of the game is still alive and well. Get it in a sale.
