Even if you fight simultaneously on multiple fronts, the game drags on and wears you down with repetitiveness and tedium.

It might not scale the lofty heights of its illustrious predecessors, but it’s got some fresh ideas and is certainly worth a look if bossing units around is your bread and butter.

Developers tried really hard to make sure that battles don’t always go the same way: there are mercs, global strikes, camouflage and sandstorms, not to mention “rocks-paper-scissors” balance and surprisingly competent AI. Of course, Etherium is not David that can bring down Blizzard’s Goliath, but it’s great to see that RTS is no longer a forgotten genre.
