Highly underrated!
This game deserves more attention though it can be hard to pick up on controls..

Don't bother with this game
This is a game I really wanted to like: I read all the positive reviews; and yes, it's different than your typical fantasy setting, but that's it. First of all, the camera control for the 3D world is terrible: it uses a combination of mouse and keyboard that's very difficult to get the hang of. Even after an hour of play it will confound you and make you seasick. Then, there are the missions. The enemy in this game is a virus you have to exterminate with some soldiers. They are slow to move around and hard to control, but that's the fun part. Then, there comes the rescue part, where you have to painstakingly coax 150 (sic!) green men around a map. They are much slower than the soldiers and much more tricky to control: a nightmare. After an hour of boring micromanagement and more seasickness, I saved 8 green men. At this point, I gave up. Even at the discounted price I paid for it, this game isn't worth the money. At full price, run away from it! (I gave 1 star because it's the minimum, but I really meant zero stars.)

Pretty awful so far
So where does the fun part come in? I've had the frustration part. I can deal with the frustration part usually, but I'm trying hard to find out why I would even want to bother with this one. Everything about the game seems clunky and uninviting. So when does the fun start?

Stylish
Stylish blend of Syndicate and a simple RTS with tons of nostalgia added. And the music, behold the music!
