It's not a bad agame per se, but it's also not that great. My main gripe is that it's nearly impossible to lose so it feels more like a puzzle game than a strategy game.

Been looking for a fun RTS game to play, and this is perfect! The first RTS I've played was Pikmin 1 for the Gamecube. I had a blast playing it, but afterwards, I wanted to play more RTS games like Pikmin. While this isn't exactly like Pikmin, it still scratches that RTS itch I've been looking for ever since! It's cheap, and it's less than 200 gigabytes! The game works perfectly fine through Proton for me, so I highly recommend giving this game a try, there is even a demo for this game as well!

Recommended Aug 25, 2026

This game is honestly so fun. I enjoyed pretty much every minute of it, and nothing challenging the game threw at me felt like the fault of the game, but rather an issue on my part. It still gets updated (not just bug fixes, actual game additions), so don't expect a 20 year old abandoned mess.

Recommended Aug 24, 2026

I just realized I've never reviewed this???? Ignore the playtime, I re-bought it on Steam later, but this game was one of my first indie games I played back when Steam was getting big (I had the physical edition with the little keychain of a Darwinian, so cool!) Such a good mood, such a good aesthetic, such a fun game. I still think about it a lot, and now it's been updated to support modern PCs so there's no reason not to give it a shot.

Recommended Jul 14, 2026

I like the vibe, I like the simplicity and the complexity included in with that
