Iron Harvest is a typical KING Art production, intriguing and appealing at first, but having spent some time with it, you notice the shoddy workmanship and a heap of technical problems.

It’s a solid, very pretty and well-balanced RTS in the vein of Company of Heroes and Dawn of War II. Its most important quality though is that it managed to retain the atmosphere and allure of the unique dieselpunk 1920+ universe it’s set in. [11/2020, p.74]

As promising as Iron Harvest’s setting is, the story just can’t keep up, while gameplay is a straight copy/paste from Company of Heroes 2. [Issue#248, p.50]

it could be a company of heroes killer and be a awesome RTS but the mecanics are worse than COH1 and it just looks cooler without the gameplay to stand that out.

Very fun alt-historical game. It's a strategy game that puts you in a steampunk world.

Very good game. I enjoyed playing this game a lot. I strongly recommend this.

The setting and the world structure in Iron Harvest are profound and perfectly accompanied by the imposing music - absolute goose bumps.

Old school RTS. Similar to Company of Heroes with maybe a hint of Dawn of War. Genuinely feels like Relic made the game. I'm having a great time playing it -- better than I thought!

Game is awesome. Devs delivered exactly what was promised. Contact with playerbase is exemplary. Game is in constant development. It is musthave for the World of 1920 fans. Maps, unit design and voice acting is marvelous. I am in love with this game, so my short review may not be objective. ;-)

If the RTS is dead, then Iron Harvest is some pretty slick necromancy. A classic-style single-player campaign with a strong story complements the absolute satisfaction of big, stompy mechs. [Single Player Score = 80]

Iron Harvest is a good game. KING Art Games did a good job responding to the demand of the players who clearly enjoy these types of games, but with all the ideas they proposed, they could have done something really new. It has a lot of single player content and a good AI both in the campaign and in quick games.

Iron Harvest delivers some fun tactical gameplay, some gorgeous visuals, and some real disappointment.

While not quite hitting the heights of Company of Heroes or World in Conflict, Iron Harvest is one of the best RTS games to come out within the past few years, largely indebted to Jakub Rozalski's art and the lore already built upon by Scythe. Fans of the genre who are tired of replaying the classics should definitely consider stepping into the WWI-style mechs of Iron Harvest, though consumers who aren't already interested in RTS titles won't find any compelling reason to dive in to this one, either.

Iron Harvest is definitely not a bad game by any stretch of the imagination. It’s just an average real-time tactics game with neat visuals and very little originality in its design.

Do tej gry miałem kilka prób, ponieważ i nie mogłem się przekonać do RTS'ów mimo to, że mocno chciałem, no i nie mogłem jej ogarnąć. W końcu po czasie postanowiłem zagrać i porządnie ją przejść. Początki były ciężkie, ponieważ na co dzień nie obcuję ze strategicznymi produkcjami. Przez całą przygodę czułem, że nie mam kontroli nad moimi jednostkami. Finalnie rozgrywka polegała na zrobieniu jak największej liczby żołnierzy i robotów, żeby ruszyć nimi na jedno miejsce i gra przechodziła się sama. Sam motyw modernistycznej wojny jest interesujący, ale nie jest mechanicznie nie wiadomo jak doskonały. Taki przeciętniak dla początkujących, lecz weterani strategii nie będą zadowoleni.

What they blatantly stole from Company of Heroes, works. Everything else is well below sub par. Weapon ranges make no sense, units (yours and enemies) will run right into groups of opposing units, especially when retreating (which you will do alot), the enemy can compute mass multitasking orders far faster than you can so prepare to be constantly assaulted by units before you can even get a full base built...never mind actual units fielded, unit pathfinding is utterly abysmal (units will stand right next to enemies and "dance" in place instead of attacking. This entire game is terribly optimised. The second Train mission is neigh unbeatable because of terrible unit range (you have a MASSIVE train cannon but it has a 20ft **** it's useless). Just avoid this game unless it's on extreme sale (14.99 or less)

This is still beta - wait a couple of months, because this game needs truckload of polish. And wait for a big sale, right now it's prices like an AAA title - which it clearly isn't. Frame rate is underwhelming on my rig - with 5 units on screen it feels like Total War with hundreds. The quality of Polish voice over is amateurish. And I hate the fact I have to finish the campaign with one faction to play with another, terrible, terrible design choice.
SummaryIron Harvest is a real-time strategy game (RTS) set in the alternate reality of 1920+, just after the end of the Great War. The Game lets you control giant dieselpunk mechs, combining epic singleplayer and coop campaigns as well as skirmishes with intense action on the battlefield for multiplayer fans, Iron Harvest is the classic real-ti...
