In Superhot time only goes forward when you move. This turns the gameplay into something closer to a puzzle game as you need to be very calculated with every move you make.

Players fight it out in large battles that take place on multiple planets, making for a very large scale RTS.
Pro Picture-in-picture mode allows for better monitoring
A picture-in-picture mode permits players to keep tabs on any area or planet that they are currently not viewing in the main screen. While it may cause complications in trying to keep track, it does open up an easy way to quickly viewing what is going on elsewhere in the game.
Cons
Con Short story mode
Although there are plenty of other modes with a lot of variety, the story mode can typically be beaten in around 2 hours.

Too many layers, tries to be too much. Just needed to re-build FAF in a new engine.
Con Requires high specs
Users need to have good PCs to run this game. Those who do not have high-end graphics' cards, a lot of RAM, and good CPUs will experience problems during play, such as low frame rates.
