Possibly one of the best CQB RTS games ive ever played. I dont think ive ever felt as immersed as i have playing a top down RTS like this. With each action i take with my soldiers i feel like im on the ground with the brave Russian army. Salute to the heroes fighting the fascist ukrainian orcs.

Squad 22: ZOV is not a good game. 3/10 at best. The art is strong, and it carried the experience, but the equipment screen takes 75% of the gameplay, which is usually fine when there is any gameplay to begin with. There's only 1 free mission, not even a free campaign, and after that you HAVE to purchase to play more. Music, gameplay, animations, etc. except art are all mediocre at best. The gameplay is probably what I looked forward to the most to seeing what it was, and it's just Door Kickers 2: Task Force North, but worse. It's buggier, harder to control, not as smooth, etc. There are some things, like being able to prone and kneel that is good in Squad 22, but overall it's just not worth it. If you want a game like this, but better, buy Door Kickers 2. Low 3/10, devs, try harder.4 found this helpful
People will actually play this game and be surprised it is propaganda, when it literally has ZOV in the title. Now ultimately, given how the game is and its weird payment model all around, is it bad? Well, it is kind of really decent for what it is. Although this is really more of a game I think would feel better on a mobile device than a PC. I really enjoy the concept of the mechanics and the concept behind the gameplay, more than I do the game itself. It has everything I would like in a game, but ultimately, I think it is better suited to very different types of players. I really do like the realistic take on super small, single squad unit tactics. The tutorial is a bore, but when the game actually lets you play, it is pretty decent. There is conceptually a lot of decent production here in terms of art, the music, the somewhat inspired persistent characters and the campaigns. But it is ultimately a glorified infantry manual with some pretty tight control over every single action of a single soldier and that is maddening to some, or all of the fun. Personally, even though I actually am a big fan of persistent, named soldiers campaign to campaign, I feel like that works for sm…3 found this helpful
