Rover Wars

Cute little RTS with an interesting economic model: you spend money to build unit spawners, and you get roughly enough money to build a unit spawner by killing just one unit that an enemy unit spawner spawned. If you have a surplus of money, you can also spend it by blasting a bunch of the enemy unit spawners into oblivion (by spending somewhere between "a lot more money than it took to build them" to "just a little bit more money than it took to build them", depending on the exact placement of your blast). So each match has a nice give-and-take going on, where the enemy being on the offensive helps fund your counterattack, and vice-versa. I think my biggest problem with the game is probably that the actual attack you get isn't that fun to use, spamming a spinny slash isn't exactly quality top-down shooter-material.

[i] My Experience [/i] First off, let me preface this by saying that I've probably played less than an hour of MOBAs in my life. I've never really been all that keen on competitive multiplayer. However, the description of [b]Rover Wars[/b] mentions real-time strategy and a co-op campaign, two things that are in pitifully short supply. I convinced a friend to try the campaign with me using Steam's Remote Play Together feature (a co-op lover's best friend) and we got started. However, rather than focusing on tech or working your way up to a particularly powerful unit (such as Starcraft's carriers - [i]I know, I'm a garbage Starcraft player[/i]), [b]Rover Wars[/b] is more about macro. I often felt like I was playing Blokus or something, trying to crowd the map with as many structures as quickly as possible. Each level felt like a tedious war of attrition, and we quickly became exhausted with the game. While I must admit that I found the "deathray" amusing (ion cannon-type mechanics are always super satisfying), it wasn't enough to leave me with an overall positive impression of the game.

cool cool fun fun

Whoa this game is intense! I did the first two planets of the campaign now. The first planet serves as tutorial while on the second planet all troops are unlocked. The player controls a rover who can build factories and attack manually. The factories produce small bots that target the enemy factories and ultimately the base. This results in a hectic back and forth where you try to control certain portions of the map by destroying enemy factories and building your own instead. Keep an eye on your resource meter! Resources can be earned by attacking enemy bots. I still need to figure out which type of troops I need for which situations.

if your wondering if this game is worth the price, take a moment to read my review and find out. so this game reminds me of the simple yet outstanding games you can find on Xbox 360, this is a real time strategy with user-controlled unit, simple to learn and fun to play. best with a controller (Xbox 360 controller i used) and also works with the keyboard. offline skirmish with lots of maps to chose from. a short campaign that works like a tutorial. local-coop. local-VS mode. overall its worth a purchase. thanks for reading have a great day!
