Ready or Not
Ready or Not is an intense, tactical, first-person shooter that depicts a modern-day world in which SWAT police units are called to defuse hostile and confronting situations.
Realism First
VOID interactive has consulted with police teams globally to create rules of engagement and a scoring system that are both challenging and realistic. In order to push the bar further with realism, Ready or Not models ballistic penetration, ricochet, kevlar and plate dynamics, as well as projectile expansion and momentum.
Robust and natural controls
Explore a deep and involved weapon handling and player maneuvering system, geared towards providing officers with an unprecedented level of control over their situational effectiveness. Ready or Not utilizes a simple and organic control scheme which won’t have players fumbling around, forgetting dozens of key bindings.
Planning system
Organize an approach and strategize through floor plans and mission briefs, then execute the mission in real time. Officers can decide to deploy with items such as ballistic shields, door rams, tactical ladders, and much more. Swat units can also choose to enlist personnel to assist with the situation, including sniper teams and negotiators.
Command your team
Team leaders will command a smartly designed team of AI officers in single player.
Diverse modes
Bring order to chaos online with friends through a tactical cooperative experience, lead a crack team of AI-driven swat members in a solo, story-rich campaign, or battle a rogue organization in a fierce and competitive multiplayer environment.
Intelligent customization
With access to over 60 unique items, players are given the tools to tackle any situation. The right combination of weapon optics, muzzle modifications, magazine types and foregrip variations gives an officer the edge in combat. Alternatively, load up with plates and heavy armor to prevent a quick end, at the expense of agility. Officers can also personalize their unit with team-specific patches and uniforms.

Ultimate General: Civil War
Summary: Game consists of charging artillery batteries in a frantic rush to beat a timer, and in the next battle charging those same magically reanimated artillery batteries.
+Maps look nice
+It’s a decent dicking around game if you can overlook/tolerate the flaws, and it’s better than it’s predecessor so hopefully the successor to this one will be worth buying
+Can /slightly/ customize units and modify your army (for the most part, purely useless shit like swapping out commanders who all give the same perks, and renaming brigades, but not your divisions or corps because reasons)

Having played this game in detail, I have give an honest opinion. First off, good game over all. For me it was highly addictive and gave me a great sense of nostalgia playing Sid Meier’s: Gettysburg and Antietam and General Lee: Civil War 1 and 2. This game seems to be a hybrid of the two, the real time movement and engagement of troops on the battlefield of the former coupled with the stats and economics of the latter. In fact, some of the weapons mentioned in this game, the Farmers and re-bored Farmers muskets (perhaps 1812 Springfields before and after conversion from flintlocks) brought me back to my General Lee: Civil War days.

Civil War: Battle of Petersburg
For the price, what’s the risk? BATTLE OF PETERSBERG will appeal to hisorical and strategy turn based gamers. Sure, there is room for improvement, especially with the hexagonal map, camera perspective and color scheme, which make it difficult to see terrain and to select units. And, I can’t speak to historical accuracy because I’m no expert. But you get an entire campaign providing several hours of gameplay through multiple battles. The gameplay is simple and no-frills that gives artillery a lot of power (they can move, condutct ranged attack, and destroy entire units, all in one turn). Your strategy will focus on using artillery to blast away entire sections of the enemy front line, followed up by infantry to clean up anything missed by the artillery, and cavalry to exploit the hole you’ve just punched. My recollection of the Petersburg campaign is that this is basically the strategy used. Recommended despite its problems.

In short - quick and easy to play, arcade game with strategic elements. Low price but also low content.
- Quick and easy to play
The game is far from being complex. You need only 1-2 minutes in menu to adjust all the graphic settings and the same amount of time spent using tutorial is more than enough to start first scenario. Simple rules of combat, relatively small maps as well as not much of a variety of units make the play fast and easy to finish even during eating dinner.
- Hot seat
It is always nice addition to the simple&short games. It could be strategic game but the truth is that you won’t make complicated plans and cunning strategies as this game lacks of any strategic depth. So there is no fear to play against each other using “hot seat” option as it suits such “strategic-arcade” game.

Ashland Dossier
«Ashland Dossier» is an espionage thriller packed with elements of turn-based stealth tactics and role-play adventure. Use your cunning, agility, and wit to finish off the Nazi plague for good this time. Ahead of you lies a deadly confrontation as the enemy threatens to drive the world into the depth of dreadful and pointless war once again.
After WWII, numerous Nazis managed to slip through the cracks and escape overseas. Like rats, they scattered around the world to hide in shadows believing that the long arm of justice will never reach them. However, this is one fatal delusion.
In the late 1950s, a private investigative organization has been formed. INCU (International Nazi Crime Unit) has only one specific goal in mind: to find such criminals and get them back for a fair trial.
You will assume the role of an officer that is looking for a group of the most rotten scoundrels. In the past, all of them committed extremely heinous crimes which are still left unpunished. Your goal is to find their trail, gather all the possible evidence, and finally bring them to justice.
Easier said than done, though. There is another new force that has just appeared out of nowhere – «Ashland». Unfortunately, these people will stop at nothing in their decisive effort to help runaway Nazis…

Rebel Reenactment: Battle of the Wilderness
its is so fun
– Real player with 10.6 hrs in game
while it is very rough it has obvious potential the idea of being a soldier in a civil war battle is a interesting and entertaining the game right now is functional but has some problems. Like getting stuck in the aiming pose when your trying to get to the shoulder arms position or how a side will randomly stop spawning soldiers. But if they keep working on it it would be a entertaining game to play.

Total War: EMPIRE – Definitive Edition
I’ve had this game for awhile so i guess this was a review long coming. what did i like? everything essentially. the time the game was sent in, the ships, the muskets. all down to the game’s controls. even watching the battle go on, if you have the time is like watching a movie. if there was anything i could say this game truly missed, it would be these few cons:
- There’s no way to play with a friend in the campaign. as detailed as it was it missed this feature. maybe if
this ever gets a reboot it could include a campaign like shogun total war 2 has (you can play with a friend). And include a full on multiplayer campaign so players would fight for territory instead of just the AI

Basically, I’m addicted to this game. When I feel like some quick entertainment a little Road to Independence is in order. This is especially fun when you put it on the hardest setting and promptly cream the red coats at Bunker Hill. Watching them run away is completely gratifying.
Once in awhile it is enjoyable to sink a Spanish Galleon with an 18 gun sloop. It’s nice to have guns that shoot farther than the big boy’s guns. Layoff in the distance, knock out the masts with chain, and then have at the immobile hulk.

Chess Knights: High Noon
Incredible game!! This is definitely the most fun game in the Chess Knights series! I love western movies and this game has the perfect western vibe! In the other games, you could only survive, escapingfrom the enemies, but now you are a badass gunslinger and you only advance if you eliminate all enemies on the level! The puzzle continues with the same quality from Minimol games, but now we have the addition of Duel mode, which forces you to think and act very fast, just like in a real duel! I can’t wait for the full release!

I really like the games in the Chess Knights series. When I saw this game announced with this theme I confess that I found it unusual.
Well, what I can say is that this game just became my new favorite in the series.
In addition to the game being beautiful like the others, and counting very well elaborated puzzles (ranging from the simplest ones that present the mechanics, to the most challenging ones), the theme was very well implemented, including the duel, which is very well incorporated gameplay dynamics in a way I didn’t imagine for a game inspired by chess.
