Hostile Waters: Antaeus Rising

Absolutely unique, needs a sequel

First GOG review, just had to recommend this game. I'm a big fan of the original concept of Carrier Command even if in reality it was too far ahead of its time technically and as such wasn't a great game. This game takes the formula and really makes an excellent gaming experience around it. Choosing the right vehicles with the right weapons matters, and the game offers a decent challenge, its not just a tank rush, a few missions I had to restart multiple times but it never felt unfair. Also, the level designs are great, the situations are generally varied and scripted events require you to think on feet and adapt. unlike the recent adaption of carrier command (which i liked!), this game doesn't suffer the same path finding issues, and also has a surprisingly long campaign, so you really get your moneys worth. I've been looking around and really cant find much else like it, closest is probably battle zone or maybe uprising, though with full control over units over a whole map and order queues, this has greater strategic elements than both. This is the kind of game GOG was made for.
