Sept. 2025

If Birth of a Nation was a game. This is the most violently anticommunist game I've ever played. Not even touching historical accuracy, because my knowledge of the Russian civil war is pretty limited. Despite it's contention that "war makes monsters of us all, there are no good guys", in this game there clearly are! The whites are a diverse group, with a fair amount of honorable soldiers and officers who sometimes assist you, even against the orders of their high command. The red army are a horde of savage animals that cannot be negotiated with, only shot or occasionally scared away with force of arms. Every civilian comes to you begging for help fighting the plague of communists who steal, murder, and burn their way across the countryside. But the game never stops for a second to consider that that is what the Czech soldiers are doing! You rumble across Russia in a locomotive bristling with guns, murdering everyone who gets in your way and grabbing anything that isn't nailed down. When the communists do it, it's barbarous pillaging. When your guys do it, you're just picking up a little resource token. In terms of the game itself, the tactical layer is prefunctory. To it's credit, it does have enough variety to keep every mission from feeling the exact same. alternating between picking off isolated patrols, storming heavily manned enemy positions, digging in against waves of attacks, and scrambling away from enemy artillery and armor until you can gain the upper hand. However, there's a winning set of tactics that basically defeats every challenge (sneak to take out enemy gun emplacements, use scout's snipe ability to take out high priority targets, line up all your guys in cover to clear enemy infantry before they find cover, and drop artillery/grenades on enemy tanks). It's not very hard, but it is quite tedious, and certain mechanics are extremely janky so sometimes you can fail through no fault of your own. The strategic layer is the real star of the show. Micromanaging your train, upgrading and scavenging for resources while avoiding enemy attention is really fun. That, along with the beautiful painted images of wartime depravity are what creates a tense atmosphere that kept me playing to the end. I can recommend this game if you have a good tolerance for jank and reprehensible politics.

A long and arduous journey, though i'd say the emotional payoff is worth it. If you like top-down tactics games reminiscent of commandos + a bit of resource management outside of missions, this is for you. If you want to cheese the hell out of the game, get a sniper to 5, then spec him to rifleman and you'll trivialize 50% of all combat encounters.

April 2025

This game succeeds in everything it tries to do. Most importantly, it is a well-made, well-polished product. I have been thinking about this game a lot after I finished it, and I'm probably going to start another run soon.

Game is set in captivating post world war 1 time period that really seem to be made for cover shooter tactics game. Tactics gameplay is great and squad and train management keeps you on your toes on your journey. Then again I was born to like this game.. I am Czech who grew up playing Original War and I am proud that Brno studio made this love letter of a game. "Za republikůůůůůů!!"

Nov. 2024

I couldn't find a good game for nearly a year until I found this. It's an Oregon Trail vibe but a train and WWI soldiers returning home instead of a wagon and frontiers people. Don't let the RTS tag scare you off, this isn't Warcraft or Command and Conquer. It's built to pause frequently to issue commands. There are some time-based objective but so far most missions can be don't at any pace.
