Top critical reviews
The most up-voted negative English reviews in our sample, quoted as written.
“The combat is boring... Missions are carried by heroes, where other units just soak some damage, with no bigger impact on combat. Sound effects don't work properly.”
“I am so tired of games that are not properly tested. Not only is it a clone of battlesector but it also has the same early release bugs with side missions not working.”
