Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
Essentially War, the game [♥♥♥♥. we shall refer it to WAME from now on.] is a simplistic RTS where player takes control of proabably a rookie commanding officer doing VR round in the newly made simulation program since the story is barebone but WAME doesnt really need story to flesh it out much since its gameplay carries it strongly by itself.

I love the fluid feel, the graphics, the simplicity.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
Finally, what really made this game stand out, was the atmosphere created by the glitched up view of the planet, coupled with the glitchy tutorial AI and the almost glitch-hop soundtrack, which went down very well with my ears.
