Good: - Lots of depth in trying to balance the two sides while fighting off Woes (think natural disasters in Sim City), bandits, and yourself. - The way the two sides are intentionally unbalanced is brilliant and adds a lot of strategy in planning your towns, miracles and moves. - I actually found myself attached to Blue due to their early underdog status and for the entirety of the game I coddled them while destroying Red while still playing as Red. It was a strange but awesome feeling. - Great music by Pablo - Lots of difficulty options and many variables - Low Price - Great tutorial for an Arcen game Cons: - It will never be as good as AI War (making 9 the highest score I give these days)

Wow! Just played the free weekend and have never been more disappointed in my life. The main upgrade we were promised was graphics but most of the textures and models have simply been reused; the cans sitting in the trash can, the computers and keyboards in Office, etc. Not only is a lot reused but the graphics actually look worse in a lot of cases. The game seems to have nerfed bullet damage and made precise aiming impossible. I came away with that same gross taste I get in my mouth after playing CoD. Many maps have been removed from the game including Assault and the physics appear to be gone completely. The character models often appear too similar making it difficult to tell friend from foe. The new weapon additions are just plain weird and don't fit in the CS world, personally the shield made more sense than a molotov **** I do appreciate it is priced low but why pay $15 for a worse experience?

An incredibly deep puzzle game. I personally play on my Xperia Play through Playstation Mobile and have lost a lot of sleep over this title already. Your mind will really get a workout since you have to think ahead to plan the best possible moves and fight for the highest score possible and when things work out its a thing of beauty. The game is very polished and while lacking a large amount of diversity within its modes the endless mode itself can last nearly an hour and you'll be left wondering how the time flew past so quickly when looking at your after-action report.

Excellent puzzle game and I generally hate puzzle games. TONS of depth; more game modes than I care to count, a ~10 hour long campaign that challenges you at every turn by gradually increasing the difficulty, acclimating you to new modes and concepts while setting different victory conditions. If you bought this game because you're an AI War fan then you will not be disappointed (With Arcen you never will be) because this game does for puzzle games what AI War does for the RTS genre; it breaks every convention while adding a level of depth never before seen in this style of game.

Ok, had to make an account just to show some love to this game. Think Mario Kart with an arcade twist. The action is frantic, the AI is unforgiving and the driving is as tight as can be. This game has a huge difficulty curve and will take more than a week (*ahem*) to get the hang of. The soundtrack kicks ass and fits perfectly. The weapons control incredibly well. The game is perfectly playable on a keyboard but is a bit better with a controller plugged in. There are tons of levels and the leaderboards offer a lot of incentive to run every race as best as you can. All in all its the single best racing game I've ever played and I am not exaggerating one bit. I also paid about $2 for the game but given the ~100 hours I've put in to it I would gladly have paid $60. Perfect game that does not get the credit it deserves.
