The Good: If you're looking for a game to get started with the RTS genre, this is your game. Great for entry level players who just want to get the basics of macro management down and learn some simple mechanics. I personally love the art style, and the introduction of a navy/bridges in this game really changes how certain maps are played out and added some much needed strategic depth that 8 Bit Armies lacked. Mobile HQ's are also another huge addition to this game that adds a ton of options for base building. This game is plenty of fun and has AI that is reasonably challenging. I also think the implementation of super weapons is a step up from 8 Bit armies, increasing how powerful the weapons are per silo/uplink rather than reducing the weapons frequency. I personally play the Versus mode against the AI a lot, and really enjoy it for the most part. The Bad: Now, if you are an RTS veteran, I can't say this game is for you. Although this game is a step up in complexity from it's predecessor, it is still relatively simple. Not a ton of unit variety, and there are only 2 factions, which despite having different special units still play mostly the same. The AI in this game could also use some tweaking. For some reason, at least up to Hard difficulty, the AI will just not rebuild refineries. It will aggressively expand and take over oil wells to build refineries, but never rebuild a refinery after it is destroyed. This leads into another problem with the AI. At some point, it just gives up. If you destroy all of an AI opponents refineries, it will not rebuild them, run out of money, and just stop producing. It won't sell buildings, it won't manually stop the productions of troops, and it will even stop managing units to defend itself or attack other opponents. You will just be able to roll over it and do whatever you want at that point in the game. I would understand something like that being programmed intentionally at lower difficulties, but everything from Hard onwards should not have this issue. The other issue I have with this game is the campaign. Very mediocre. The story isn't anything to write home about, and the actual gameplay is very lackluster. You are incentivized to produce many troops every level to level them up and make them stronger over time, but penalized for not completing the missions quick enough to get all the stars and all of the unlocks. Many of the levels drag on, and the maps feel very empty. Overall, I do recommend this game to new RTS players. The core gameplay is good, and the multiplayer is fun. I have had a good time adjusting settings between battles and experimenting with different amounts of AI opponents on different maps. You can even run games where the oil wells have unlimited oil and build up some really silly late game bases. All in all, a good RTS game for the casual player.

Game is like command and conquer in a lego universe. Not super serious, but has many of the modern RTS features. I think it would make for a really fun LAN game.

this game would absolutely take off if the modders took it seriously. what a lovely modern implementation of classic rts. edit: the game's campaign is fine. anyone who complains it's difficult, i'm sorry, you have a profound skill issue. You call yourselves "experienced RTS players" and yet you fail to complete a fairly basic RTS's campaign. The campaign is designed to complete one/two stars at a time, not three stars on your first playthrough.

Solid classic RTS gameplay. Campaign missions are fun but challenging, and the rougelite mode that is free DLC stays fun and interesting. Got it on sale, but would have paid full price
