About Recruits

Recruits is a brutal fast paced top down shooter that puts the lives of countless amounts of soldiers in your command. Lead your men to victory and see them progress through the ranks, show them defeat and they will be lost forever.

Your role as a commander puts you in charge of managing a platoon of soldiers during the war. Take men into battle one squad at a time to accomplish your missions, along the way gaining experience and respect that allows you to better equip and customize your soldiers.

Only by keeping your men alive, gaining medals and awards and defeating an overwhelming amount of enemies can you hope to be victorious during this time in history.

It started out very promising, a different idea, but due to some misfortune or problem in the development of the product, it all ended. I don't recommend buying it because of the abandonment, but it was interesting. ============== Uma pena começou bem promissor, uma ideia diferenciada, mas por algum infortunio ou problema no desenvolver do produto tudo se acabou. Não recomendo a compra pelo abandono, mas era interessante.
