Graphics of machines and computers promise something extraordinary, but are all static objects. Puzzles make no sense - lasers and alien unobtainium balls (instead of just half-permeable mirrors for some reason) on a human spaceship? Gravitation and object physics are completely unnecessary and actually hurt the gameplay - playing unintended soccer with important objects, then searching where they flew is extra annoying. Believe me or not - I managed to trap myself behind the blue field right in the 2nd room because the box fell from the plate! The game ending in that otherwise awesomely designed control room and overall duration cause a huge anticlimax! In overall it looks like meant for something bigger, but left on an early demo stage. Somebody could pick what's there and do something with it.
There are problems with unit selection: you click them several times and they still doesn't want your command. Other time you're sure you've made your selection and when you click, half of your army is retreating. You barely see your units and have to remember where they're positioned, because there's no global list, to slect them from. Your soldiers and vehicles shoot through buildings (?!), but a tank on a town's street is blocking it so tightly almost nothing can pass, forget another tank. Generally your units move through the terrain like a bunch of disoriented ants. Your infantry fight like peasants and either prove worthy as a crew of some cannon or become a cannon fodder. The best tactic (?!) is to use a scout and artillery and level everything to the ground! Huge amount of micromanagement is required and when you focus on one part of action, just a screen away enemy's artillery or bombers are squeezing cr*p out of your important units no matter you tried to move them to safety. Sometimes you find yourself searching for a tiny unit like a scout or officer through half of the map wondering where on earth have you left him last time only to conclude it must have vanished without a trace or any message, because there are no messages about what's going on on the battlefield. So you reload and replay, reload and replay... and so on... and after a few times you just give up and quit. This game irritated me so much I deinstalled it after 3 missions. It isn't a war game - it's a shame!
