How it feels

A chaotic intersection of first-person shooting and real-time strategy, where you either command armies or fight on the ground as a soldier in photorealistic sci-fi battles.

What players say

Players praise the RTS/FPS hybrid concept and its cinematic battles, but consistently criticize poor optimization, unfinished state, and a hollow strategic layer with imbalanced factions and clunky AI pathing.
