Ratings and reviews

Amazing game, been playing on and off for a few years. After about 7 years of programming experience I got back into it, just bought the PC version on Steam. I love the uniqueness of its online multiplayer system, being asynchronous (your opponent can be offline and you can still play against or with them). As I said, amazing game, a work of art!

i really like the aspect of the programmable units, but i dislike how you have to pay for a few features, like the sandbox mode. either that, or make it cost less. making 10000 points from only 25 per game, doesn't work well. even the 5000 for just coloring my bots is crazy. especially for only one color at a time.

Edit: Have to pay to play past 1st campaign of each type. Boo. Great game, the tutorials really help break things down. Also, I've gotten to the 6th campaign but can no longer access it. My biggest problem is that it's just trial and error work at this point unless I want to spend hours making and testing a whole new system. I wish there was a feature that saved the versionsof the AI system that beat each level in case you seriously mess up.
