What players say
Players praise the tactical depth and accessibility, with long-time fans returning for years. The AI is tough and often outnumbers the player, making defense crucial. The scenario editor and community content add replay value, while the multiplayer lobby has a small but dedicated crowd. Some wish development continued, and a few call the graphics cartoonish.
