Meh
Very monotonous gameplay, if decently polished. Writing was amusing, at least.

Punk Wars
Description
The years go by and another cycle has come to an end. Our civilisation has crumbled due to our greed and selfishness. Now we know that to avoid repeating the same mistakes, we need to stand united… and ours is the banner, under which humanity can thrive again. Our technology, philosophy and way of life are the ones that can finally bring happiness to the world… we just need to convince a few stubborn leaders...
Punk Wars is a combat and tactics-oriented strategy drawing inspiration from the classic turn-based 4X titles. Set in a post-apocalyptic world, in which the ruins of a once powerful megacity become the arena for a deadly fight between four newly emerged corporations, trying to assert dominance for both their unique technology and philosophy of life.
Become the powerful leader of the mesianic steampunk, tenebrous dieselpunk, militaristic steelpunk or technocratic atompunk; explore the ruins of a bygone civilization, where resources are scarce and the dangers way too common. Develop your infrastructure and technology that will secure your triumph. Create a winning strategy and a playstyle for each faction, utilising their distinctive skills and units.
But before you make that happen, you will have to set out to explore the once magnificent, ruined wasteland full of hostile nomads; find water and other vital resources, extract them and put them to a good use developing your scientific, industrial and military infrastructure. Grow and expand your territory, creating advanced and foolproof supply chains in which single units rely on each other, working together like one organism.
Grow and rule over your population, carefully monitoring its well-being and keeping it content. Plan ahead as much as you can, but leave yourself some space for a time when a random event strikes. And finally - put your meticulously trained and developed units to good use, engaging in challenging, turn-based battles that will put your tactical thinking to the test.
- Take control of one of the four powerful corporations - Steampunk, Dieselpunk, Atompunk or Steelpunk - and use its unique skillset to lead it to glory.
- Explore the mysteries of a ruined, post-apocalyptic megacity.
- Level up your units and engage in fierce battles that will challenge your tactical sense.
- Grow your scientific, industrial and military infrastructure, creating advanced supply chains.
- Seek, garner and wisely use scarce resources.
- Unite humanity and lead it to the new era of peace and prosperity!

Even less punk than Green Day
Not a good game. Lagging, slow, boring. The setting is fun, but the graphics are absolutely unsepactacular - which would be fine if the gameplay had anything original or at least some solid fun. But what you get is a completely exchangeable textbood 4X game, thats slow, full of trial-and-error and with little deepness. Avoid!

Dull
I played 4 and a half hour of this and that was enough. Fortunately I got it on sale. It's a shame, because I think they could have done so much more with the setting. The gameplay is very tedious. Two examples: 1. One unit per tile seems a terrible mechanic in combination with the map design. So you will end up shuffling units around in order to advance. 2. Unless you "sleep" units then you have to click through all active units to end your turn. As a result, you feel that your activity in each turn is very minor and most of the time you are clicking through units or waiting for the AI. Each faction has a technology tree but its hard to be excited about the majority of the perks in them; they're just boring things on the way to something useful.

Mac version busted.
Intel i9, AMD Radeon Pro 5500M 8 GB. 32GB RAM. Running Sequoia. Game launches fine. But, if I go into the video settings to change anything, even lower graphics and resolution, once I click apply the game stops responding and gives me the beachball of death. If I click on Tutorial to play, I get the beachball of death and the game never launches. In both cases, I have to force quit from Activity Monitor. Don't waste your money like I did.
