Barebones remake of the game that laid an incredibly solid foundation for the renowned strategy series but clearly had much more to improve upon.
+ well-thought-out gameplay systems that barely needed to change over decades
+ quick and responsive inputs
+ a lot of possible army customization
- minimal story with just a couple lines of exposition between levels
- generic character models for everyone
- constant flood of forgettable new units who often don't say a word
- only a single type of objective (capturing the enemy base)
- too much downtime between action due to large maps with relatively few enemies
