Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
31 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I’m saying it with the critical eye of someone who has played strategy titles across multiple eras, and very few — if any — manage to balance mechanical depth, interface clarity, and infinite replayability the way this game does.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
21 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
They didn't add any unnecessary textures, or redesigned parts of the game to make it likable for the new audience, they have focused on making the pre-existing graphics more pixelated, resulting in a game generally looking better.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
13 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The story is connected and they did a nice thing of you playing on good and bad side, so you can see the reasoning behind the war as well.
Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
11 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
This is probably a perfect game for multiplayer play, with just the right mix different elements; and, it's turn-based, which makes it more laid-back than RTS games are.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
9 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Game of my childhood and still fun to play, with good soundtrack and a bit of nostalgia.
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
9 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I have the fondest memories of playing this with friends as well, coop against the enemies.
