Good game.
I liked this game, but it seemed almost unfinished.
Bad points:
- With only 4 reinforcements, the game gets old very quickly.
- The levels go for way too long.
- Your gun should go from one side of the screen to the other. Those men with the darker hats (I dunno if they're SS or what) don't seem to ever stop shooting, and their gun shoots only a marginally shorter distance than yours. Once they started shooting I found that the only way to take them out was to go around them, or go above them and throw an grenade.
- You take too long to respawn. When there's two tanks and 2+ infantry past midway, you die as soon as you respawn. This made the game really frustrating.
- Your team is practically useless. The infantry and machine gunners never move around, so to be effective there has to be an enemy unit on the same line as them.
- Your team is all in the same spot, one grenade/mortar takes them all out.
- Considering how bad guns are in this game, grenades/artillery fire are over powered. Now, while realistically they are probably underpowered, when you have enemy units constantly throwing them and tanks constantly firing them, and on top of that guns only shoot 15-20 metres, they are way too strong.
With all these frustrations, I couldn't help but think how unrealistic the whole scenario is anyway. I mean, why would the army send one man with a few possible reinforcements against an ever increasing attacking army consisting of grenadiers, riflemen, machinegunners, artillery and tanks? I know it's just a game, but when the game has so many annoying points, things like this just add to the frustrations.
Good points:
- Good graphics.
- Enjoyable gameplay.
- Original concept.
- Good music.
- Polished.
So overall, it's a good game but with many setbacks. Also, assuming this is a sequel to Art of War DX, it is unfortunately nowhere near as good.
