5 stars (Warfare Incorporated) - While the game was a spectacular bargain, it took over a week and several e-mails to get the access code to work. The one shipped with it would not even activate the downloaded version.
The only additions I would suggest to the game is a "stand ground" feature for the units, as well as additional levels. It only took me a week of occasional play to finish all the levels.
But with all that said, I would recommend it to anyone who likes realtime strategy games, and only has a PDA to play on. It is a must have game for all PDA players.
5 stars (High quality, addictive game play, as good as any PC game) - I spend a lot of time trapped -- on the train, in airports, waiting for late starting meetings -- and I've bought a lot of PDA software to pass the time, for work and for fun. This game, however, leaves all others behind. Someone has finally ported a *great* PC game to PDA so that it keeps all it's best qualities. The graphics are outstanding, the replay factor is wonderful, and fans are constantly building new adventures that they conveniently post on the Harndmark website in the Warefare Inc forum. You can download these new scenarios for free. It's endless and addictive fun, and you'll find yourself looking for reasons to be stuck in line somewhere. My biggest condern when I bought this game was the learning curve. Some more complex games have a high learning curve and you have to find out how to play nearly by accident. However, Handmark anticipated this problem, and the first few scenarios are designed specifically to teach you how everything works. In fact, it's one of the most fun tutorials I've ever encounterd. It makes learning the game as much fun as playing it, and you don't have to read any user's guides to get going. As you progress and want to explore new game strategies, you can visit the Handmark website forum for the game and check archived messages for help or tips, or start a new discussion. You might never manage to find a way to become bored with this game. I haven't yet, and I've had it for nearly a year. |
