Archon-9 : Alien Defense

Archon-9 : Alien Defense

An excellent RTS game!

I like the dark gritty visual style; it makes a nice change from the more cartoonish games of this type that seem to be more common.

The control system is intuitive, and it’s neat how play can be switched between the drone view and the map view. There are some times in the game when the drone is either out of action or is recharging, so it’s useful to switch to the map view, and i find myself relying on the marine head cameras to see what is going on in the battle which is another really nice feature, adding some realism.

Inbound UFO

Inbound UFO

This game is brilliant! Many cool new things that made me spend a lot of time ingame. I usually don’t write reviews but as a tower defense fan and not finding enough reviews on this one, I had to say that it really brings some novelty on the genre (I had to re-think all my strategies learned in other TDs).

I like how the enemy is fighting with me, they struggle to bring my towers down :D, very nice animations and there is something interesting and addictive with the AI that I can’t pinpoint exactly.

USC: Counterforce

USC: Counterforce

USC: Counterforce is a turn- and squad-based, tactical sci-fi strategy game, the direct sequel both story- and gameplay-wise to Ultimate Space Commando (“USC” for short), taking up on the events where USC ended. As a high-ranking naval officer of United Space Command, you’re tasked to lead a 3-ship strike force back to planetary body M-8322–the scene of the original Wraith Incident–to investigate and neutralize the remainders of a still mostly unidentified alien threat. But what you find there may very well change the course of history forever…

The “original USC gameplay” returns with a brand new engine with realistic, top-down 3D graphics, an improved and modernized user interface, and partially redesigned, even more in-depth combat mechanics.

Main Features

  • FIELD TACTICS REDEFINED: An in-depth, RPG-lite game system with complex character attributes and skills, detailed combat mechanics, and elaborate inventory management fuels the turn-based tactical core of the game, enabling you to truly customize your forces and face the threats as you want. Train and equip your marines according to your tactics with a class-free, yet versatile skill system allowing for many powerful builds and combinations.

  • LIVING ENVIRONMENTS: Fight and explore through fully interactable and destructible, varied, multi-layered environments with useful, realistic mechanics: rearrange the battlefield, build barricades, avoid and exploit environmental hazards, lay traps, trigger chain reactions, seal airlocks, or break through walls–but be aware, your enemies can also do so! The combinations of hazardous elements and effects open up even more tactical possibilities and dangers.

  • DETERMINE THE FATE OF HUMANKIND: Take command and lead your fleet in the story-driven, semi-randomized, multi-ended Campaign mode, where your tactical tasks are accompanied by detailed management of your planetbase installation, the making of life-changing, narrative strategic decisions, and defending the fleet and the relay station to Earth.

  • INFINITE REPLAYABILITY: Discover the other games modes: lead your marines on various, extremely challenging multi-mission Operations with unique goals; build, maintain and defend a functional outpost in Defend the Base!; and play however you want in the fully customizable Single Mission mode featuring a hot-seat co-op multiplayer option. All missions throughout the game are made by our proprietary Random Map Generator, providing limitless possibilities!

  • DISPLAY YOUR SKILLS: an optional online profile system takes your experience even further: compete in seasonal challenge missions, earn ranks, achievements and in-game goodies, dominate the leaderboards. Upgrade and improve your official, ranked squads mission by mission to create the Ultimate Space Commando.

Crysis Warhead®

Crysis Warhead®

Because Spelling Crysis normally isnt cool enough…

This game is a Strong standalone expansion to the original Crysis game which was released on September 2008. Warhead follows a plot that happens during the original story of the first game and explains lots of things from the first game! You follow a Tough as Nails englishman Nicknamed “Pyscho” and he has a very interesting story to tell, although a short one!

http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=687935814

Warhead features a clearly optimized version of the Cry Engine 2, with 720p graphics (good for the time.) with lots of settings to choose from. Lots of Mods are also avaliable for people who want current graphics and extra options. (Shooting chickens instead of bullets, infinite energy and custom enemy skins are my favourites.)

Crysis Warhead is a first person shooter, and is a standalone expansion top the original Crysis game. This was released in September 2008.

Warhead follows a side plot to the original story of “Psycho”, an ally of the original protagonist, Nomad. You are thrown into challenges on the other side of the island at the same time as the original story. One change with the gameplay that Warhead brings, is the chance to customize your weapons, allowing you to put silencers, different sights on, and other additions such as flashlights. All of the weaponry which was in the first game is still present here, with the addition of a few new guns such as dual wielding SMGs which are absolutely bad-ass. We see the return of the super human style nanosuit too.

Iron Marines

Iron Marines

Overall

• I really enjoyed this game. For their very first RTS game, Ironhide did an amazing job. In the future, I hope they make more games like Iron Marines!

• For this review, I tried to create categories to make it easier to navigate. I wanted to give a thorough review and make sure I discussed each aspect of this game.

Set Up

• This may not be the norm, but I have enjoyed playing this game on Steam using my MacBook Air laptop.

Worlds

• I really liked the first 2 worlds (Sagan-1 and Ascendaar), but thought the third world (Borealis) was just okay in my opinion.

Real player with 98.3 hrs in game

This indie developer made their name with the excellent tower defense “Kingdom Rush” series. Now they decided to move on to “unknown” territory. Iron Marines is not a tower defense game. It is an RTS, but not a Starcraft or Command & Conquer clone. It is designed to be played on mobile devices originally, so the amont of units and buildings to manage is very scarce. Not to say that the game is simple, things get tough in impossible difficulty, and you have to know the mechanics very well to face the challenge that is presented.
