I'm not being racist to mobile games but the RTS mechanics and campaign scenarios are good, but the graphics of building microtransactions and the design for online play are terrible. also NO PROPER SKIRMISH like real RTS.
Story

Honestly, I love their campaign and animated cutscenes, that's a real RTS there.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
11 of 196 sampled reviews raised it
First of all, I think the game had its own interesting art style that reminded me of Advance Wars.

Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
9 of 196 sampled reviews raised it
For one side the game is free and you could play with your friends or even random opponents quick and easily, and for the other one, playing alone is a miserable experience.
