Ancient War Review

Pros: Its a RTS game!
Cons: Not much of a tech tree or civs :(
I like it!
This is probably the fastest-paced RTS game that I have ever played. No strike that it is the fastest paced RTS game I've ever played. Its different... but I like it. This game has come a long way, and I'm happy to see it reach this point.
The graphics and sound are well done and look profesional. I've been playing one RTS or another for the past couple years, so of course I give the gameplay a 6. There really is no storyline, but I don't think that there was supposed to be one. The interface works, but some more unit-management controls would have been helpful, such as control groups, or options to select all of one type of unit at once.
Not only is this game well done and unique, but it actually has an element of difficulty to it. The early levels aren't anything much, anyone can beat them. On my third try I beat level 8 AI, much to the surprise of my younger brother. So I tried level 10. You don't want to try level 10 on only your fourth time playing the game ever. Haven't tried survival yet, but it sounds interesting.

Thanks for the review. I'm still trying to work out survival mode, it is ok but I feel the quick battles are more fun.
