Tolles Spiel! Ich denke, dass die anfänglich mittelmäßigen Bewertungen nicht gerechtfertigt sind. Habe es im Storymodus durchgespielt und der Schwierigkeitsgrad war für mich als Casual-Stratege sehr ausreichend für Spaß und Herausforderung! Im Sale ist es ein Muss und ansonsten ist es auch zu empfehlen, will man mal ein "anderes" Strategiespiel haben.

"where were from we claim it sux." a multitude of mechanic voices spoke as one; the swarm fed on the biological and metal creations of the earth as the universe lay bare, even knowledge will be acquired from the sinner, the swarm came feeding endlessly like a twister, it came seeking to devour everything and reproduce endlessly, it came to "acquire all knowledge" meaning feast on the inventions of man and every mineral, the bible warned adam and eve not to eat the fruit of knowledge, https://youtu.be/SwyZGX30ieA?si=kyRzNTGZrM4p3eyy the endless swarm traveled to the present earth feasting and growing endlessly, A mindless tide, a hunger unbound, An endless swarm, where thought’s not found. It devours all in its endless course, Consuming matter with primal force. No voice to call, no will to bend, A ravenous beast, it has no end. It feeds on all, it takes, it tears, Unseen, unheard, no soul it shares. But I hear it, I feel its call, A psychic thread that binds it all. With will alone, I reach within, And guide the swarm, as light begins. A flicker, a pulse, the thought unspoken, The hunger ceases, the chaos broken. The swarm now still, a mind controlled, In perfect balance, as it’s told. The swarm now quiet, once feral and wild, Brought to order, calm and mild. Each mind within, now hears my voice, The swarm obeys, it has no choice. A force unseen, a quiet reign, No longer lost, no longer insane. It moves as one, no longer blind, A legion bound, with one mind. But I hear it, I feel its call, A psychic thread that binds it all. With will alone, I reach within, And guide the swarm, as light begins. A flicker, a pulse, the thought unspoken, The hunger ceases, the chaos broken. The swarm now still, a mind controlled, In perfect balance, as it’s told. But time grows short, a shadow stirs, A new threat rises, the balance blurs. An enemy unseen, it looms ahead, Ready to strike where the swarm had tread. But I’ve done it—just in time, The swarm now stands in perfect line. The battle looms, but now we stand, A psychic army, hand in hand. But I hear it, I feel its call, A psychic thread that binds it all. With will alone, I reach within, And guide the swarm, as light begins. A flicker, a pulse, the thought unspoken, The hunger ceases, the chaos broken. The swarm now still, a mind controlled, In perfect balance, as it’s told. The silence falls, the calm is here, The swarm obeys, it has no fear. And in the stillness, the balance kept, As new enemies come, their plans misstep. For the swarm now answers to one command, A force of will, a mind unmanned. And with its power, the world survives, Under control, it thrives and drives. The swarm saw things with logic and care at last when once it forsook to acquire all knowledge claiming: "where were from we claim it sux"
