I spend my hours with this game when I was younger and I find it as engaging now as then. As others pointed out, this is a tactical RTS with tries to simulate the true nature of WWII combat. That said, the game is very unforgiving. Even if you are experienced RTS player you will find yourself replaying one mission up to ten times to advance to the next. The game demands near perfect executing and a single tactical error will lead to defeat or a lack of sufficient forces, forcing you to restart the map. Thus, unless you have dozens of hours to spare on this game and are prepared to replay the same mission countless times, I would not recommend this game. I actually enjoyed Blitzkrieg 2 more, as it is much more accessible for most players. I know, I know. I'm not a "hardcore" gamer", so I believe games should be fun, and punishing difficulty is not my idea of fun.
