How it feels

A quick and accessible retro strategy game where you build bases, gather resources, and crush opponents with colorful voxel armies.

What players say

Players call it a simplified Command & Conquer clone, great for introducing someone to RTS games but too basic for veterans. The campaign is short and the story is minimal. Players are split on whether it's fun enough or too bland.
