Description
This RTS challenges you to a race to acquire energy and create a new home for yourself in a newly discovered galaxy. Featuring strategic terraforming to acquire resources, the game lets you manipulate the landscape to extract energy, expand your base, increase covered territory and limit your opponents' options. In turn, energy extraction provides power to units, buildings and protective force shields, making energy management and environmental awareness the key components to successful gameplay.

In addition, Perimeter's use of a feature called nanomorph technology allows units to be transformed into different strategic elements directly on the battlefield. Teamed with a wealth of missions, structure types, maps and factions, Perimeter delivers unparalleled tactical opportunities ready for adaptation in any gameplay situation.
  • Beautiful graphics and a very advanced terraforming engine.
  • An impressive number of versatile units that can transform to best fit the current needs of the battlefield.
  • A unique and compelling story in a surreal world shaped by dreams and nightmares.

must-have RTS

I was one of the lucky people who bought the game when it first came out. It's a unique RTS where you have to terraform the ground to build your base and harvest energy to, not only build your buildings but also to activate your defensive shield. There are a few basic units that can be transformed on the go to other, bigger units, and back again, which adds a nice strategic advantage if you use it wisely . a must have game!

Excellent and very unique RTS

What can I say? Hmm, I love it! I really enjoy RTS games, and it was great to play something so different from the rest of the games out there. The terraforming is really cool and adds an interesting new aspect to strategies. With bases being protected by the near impenetrable shields, it often takes something other than brute force to crack through. Graphics were perfect... game ran well on my aging laptop, but still crisp and detailed enough not to detract from the gameplay. I definitely became frustrated with a few of the missions and with the lack of explanation on how a number of the units operate, but overall, I would not hesitate to recommend this game to any fairly hardcore RTS fan. FYI, I bought this game a few days ago from GOG and this is my first time playing it.

Interesting idea, shit execution.

The user interface killed every bit of excitement I had for this game. I literally spent 30 minutes on mission 2 because I had no idea what the fuck was going on. Neat visuals, interesting idea, absolute shit execution.

Horribly Under-rated

I was one of the 5 people who bought this the first time round. Its an unknown gem, and well worth playing for something different.

Perimeter : The lost rts

Excellent game. Different gameplay from other rts games like supcom and starcraft. It's interesting that there is no money. A very good sign indeed. I can't wait for perimeter 2 to come out.
