Fan patches save this masterpiece
Released smack in-between red-alert and Tib Sun, Darkreign is a bit obscure, which is sad because this is one of my favorite rts' second only to whichever c&c game I feel like today. Running the game on windows 10 is a pain unless you grab the fan-made v1.8 patch, it runs the game through a wrapper allowing it to run on modern os' without palette glitches and you can even set it in windowed mode with some cfg fiddling. The 1.8 patch even re-ads the music for the expansion which is missing in the gog version because whomever made the expansion messed with the formats of the music. Gameplay is solid with asymmetrical factions and an ai that will not take your crap, there are some missions that seem flatout impossible at first but once you recognize what the game wants you feel like a tactical powerhouse. If you like the old cnc games and want something different but the same then this is worth a shot
