What players say
79% of 9,602 reviews are positive · 59% of 22 in the last 30 days
Players praise the unit and division variety, the combination of campaigns and tactical battles, and co-op with friends. Common complaints focus on the steep learning curve and single-player AI, which players describe as both unfair and ineffective. Many also report that public multiplayer has few active players.
