Ratings and reviews

absolutely amazing game. I love war games, but I also like pixel games like this and it combines them and makes a really fun game. it looks insanely realistic, an example is that the lanterns I. the trenches are affected by the artillery strikes, like they move when one lands by them. everything is so realistic and it's really fun. The only thing I don't like about it is that there are a lot of things locked behind the unlimited version. I don't really like to spend money on games.

To avoid repeating other reviews I'll focus on my favorite aspect. the artillery is an awesome affair. blows em to bits and is loud as balls. the shell doesn't fall out of the sky it crashes down and wrecks trees and trenches. the sound design is immaculate. while barrages, walking or targeted, would be awesome I understand that its limited for gameplay reasons. (maybe a custom mode so players can design our own maps/soldiers?) overall great game, wanted to show appreciation for the artillery.

This game is impossible, in my opinion. You have no control over how to replace the killed troops in your trench. This causes you to just get overwhelmed. Also, your artillery is extremely inaccurate while the AI's artillery always hits on target. I gave it 3 instead of 1 because the visuals are nice, and I like the tracer rounds. I think this game has a lot of potential.
