Top Pro

Both players (in multiplayer) take part in every fight

If one player decides to fight in real-time instead of auto-resolving a battle, the other player joins the fight on their team. The owner of the army can then delegate control of some of their units to their teammate. This system brings a lot of fun and strategy into the game. See More

Total War: Rome II

Top Pro

Depth through specilization

Due to the limited number of buildings that can be used in a town the player must weight their options smartly of what to build up in these slots in order to succeed. See More

Top Con

Lacking explanation in areas

The decisions in the game sometimes have little context even though they may result in large consequences, which makes the decisions difficult as there is no way to know the reason to make them or how they will end up. See More

R.U.S.E.

Top Pro

Active multiplayer scene

Despite the age of the game there is still many people playing online so it can be easy to find online matches. See More

Top Con

Slow

The pacing is quite slow, which may take a player quite a while to get interested in the game. This may be a turn off for some as it can take too long before interesting plot points happen. See More

Top Pro

Excellent campaign

Each mission in the campaign plays out slowly and requires careful planning, slight mistakes and the game is not that forgiving. this means the player must give full attention to the game and its enthralling story as it unfolds. See More
