What players say
Players are split on MarZ. Many praise its polished presentation and the twist of managing soldiers who man towers, but a vocal group says the strategy is an illusion: you must follow a single sequence of actions to win, leaving no room for personal tactics. Critics also call the campaign too short and the game abandoned by its developers soon after release.
