Krush Kill 'N Destroy Xtreme

The gameplay is good. The best part is the briefings. This is set up by the into. Play the opening intro several times IN FULL. This sets the tone for the briefings. Listen carefully and read what's on the screen ... the whole screen. You may be laughing at the briefing so much that you miss the start of the round. The same applies for KKND 2 Krossfire. Some groups just DON'T get along.

Runs perfectly and is still satisfying to play. Post-apocalyptic strategy is a criminally neglected genre, tis a shame this franchise hasn't been rebooted. Plenty of interesting units, though base building is a bit janky. Lack of an a-move command isn't too horrible as units generally engage satisafctorily. My only disappointment was the loose throw-away story. Its FMV cinematics are good enough for a laugh but I couldn't help imagining how cool a serious story could've been. Overall good classic game.

Until Gog or Steam releases a classic Command and Conquer collection, KKND fills that gap very nicely! The graphics are pure nostalgic bliss: sharp and full of personality. The story and characters are firmly tongue in cheek: like Mad Max meets Terry Pratchett. This is the kind of game where units are cheap, plentiful, and battles are as huge as they are decided quick. You spend a lot more time rounding up an army to go hunting enemies than building a base and there's plenty to see in the expansive and detailed maps. The music is appropriately weird and gritty. When you're finished with two campaigns Kaos Mode will provide skirmishes. I like that you can cue infinite of a unit type or set priorities for unit creation so you don't have to micromanage building an army too greatly. You can crush enemies under the wheels of your vehicles, including your resource collectors! It's not perfect but it's breezy and fun in my experience. Fair warning... Cons: This game is pretty old school. You can't select all of the same unit with double click. Pathfinding is a little rough. You have to keep checking on your units all over the map to make sure they're attacking the enemy (they forget some times or attack one at a time) and there are NO audio indications your people/buildings are being attacked unless you hear the distant gunfire. You don't get map radar until a certain tech level (which was a daring choice) Ally acknowledgement dialogue can get repetitive. Units are a bit slow. KKND was an interesting discovery I've played quite a bit! I bought Dark Reign and it unfortunately didn't work, but KKND and the sequel worked great.

First: You probably too young to get in the game.. Second: The Pixel-Resolution.. see under first.. I play on 2k monitor and 640x480, so? Third: No hints and no explanation.. go play some new crap Fourth: The bugs and crashes.. well, now we talking.. thats what i also dislike, but GOG did fix some issues already (like 256 color problem) 1. Install. 2. Start with Admin rights. 3. DO NOT EVER SKIP VIDEOS!!!!!!!!!!! NEVER!!! 4. Save not so often. You dont need it anyway 5. If it crashes, start again, DONT SKIP VIDEOS and start via Mission Load the Mission you want to play. THATS IT!!! Fifth: The difficulty.. well.. there is no problem actually, but three missions, of course, are a pain in the ass. Solution? 1. Go with your fast unit over the map and search for bunkers. With the Mechs you do hit&run. 1a. When no bunker, THEN no searching. 2. Also you have to build closer and closer to the oil and build tankers asap. 3. Every spouter need two tankers. 4. And, of course, you need for one base minimum two spouters online. 5. AAAANNNND. Do Never buy the simple units. Go only for Swat + Shotgunner + Sniper + Crazy Harry + Scorpion + Anaconda + Mastodon + Barragecraft + Beetle + Crab. 5a. Build only the others WHEN you have enough money and you wanna attract the enemy. 6. Drive over the infantery with your tanks (the first two cant do it) 7. And IF YOU HAVE TURRETS, buy the hell offa Technicians. Place them near turrets and repair immideatly. 8. IF you lose, then try again. Its an old game, not a new **** game, where you get to informed how to make a coffee (C&C is faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar harder then KKND)

I loved this game from a demo that I downloaded from "hotgames.com" forever ago, it's long been down. It's fun, but WILDLY unbalanced. The Kaos mode that would hail as a skirmish isn't balanced well either. It shows flaws, but for what it is and what it was it's fun. Just know it's not a balanced game but not many were back then.
