How it feels
A nostalgic return to classic RTS gameplay with deliberate base-building and squad-based tactical control.

What players say
Players praise the nostalgic 2D graphics and three distinct factions, but many find the unit controls and pathfinding frustrating. Skirmish AI is locked to a very hard difficulty, and the game lacks a random map generator. Opinions split on whether the unique squad-based control system is a clever feature or a major flaw.
