"A busy game to play"
3 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

This game is very involved in it's game play. If you are looking for a standard strategy game similar to Command & Conquer.....forget it. For those that like to have complete involvement, down to the last nut and bolt, this is for you. Graphics are good and it is enjoyable to play. Just keep in mind that as far as relaxed playing styles go, this is not one for you. This is a busy game and takes some time to master the control keys and options. Others may disagree to my comments, their choice.
