The game is an RTS focused on combat. That means no base building or management of resources. You have a limited amount of troops for each mission and maybe some reinforcements in some missions. So you must cure and repair. The story is ok, nothing special but keeps ya interested. Music is also ok. Graphics are old but kinda nice for a game that was released almost 20 years ago. Along with the Dark Conspiracy expansion, there are 45 missions to play and it took me around 52 hours to finish it, so good length. Decent voice acting. Found no bugs and got no crashes. Runs fine on win 7.Now, this game has several annoying things that will challenge your patience. Pathfinding is just plain terrible. Units can take long walks around other units just to go behind them or take paths that you often need to correct. There are no tooltips or any help in-game. Units are really slow, like turtles, so most of your playtime is waiting for them to reach any point and others are even slower than others. The ultimate annoyance is that you can't save and the balance of the game on later missions is really bad. Even if you select the easiest difficulty you gonna be overrun by a massive amount of enemies that, most of the time, show up from nowhere when you're about to finish the mission and you're usually decimated by then. So play it again and again till you get lucky. Pretty boring and frustrating. Overall, the game is somewhat entertaining but pretty much aged and the strategy factor is kinda irrelevant when the game is designed to jump on you with unforeseeable surprises. Guess I can resume it like this: spend 59 minutes taking care of your units, repairing and healing, plan your attack, succeed with your objectives, reach minute 60, get a sneaky massive attack with almost no time to prepare, die and repeat. If that floats your boat, by all means, play it. I didn't want the game to beat me so I finished it but surely was tempted to drop it more than a few times. Games with long missions where you can't save and you can die with no means of seeing it coming are a thumbs down from me.
