You need a barracks to create soldiers but they will also count towards your population which means you’ll need to feed your armies (using farms) otherwise you’ll be restricted by a low population cap. As with something like Command and Conquer, there’s a process to this with a couple of considerations for when you are planning out your base. I’m coming to this series fresh though and have always liked strategy games that leave the 1000 page manuals, and historical accuracy, at the door and instead focus on quick and dirty warfare and that’s what you get here with the game as you take part in the struggle between the Lightbringers (the good guys) and the Deathsworn (the bad guys).Ĩ-Bit Hordes introduces you to the gameplay pretty gently with the first mission (of either faction’s campaign) tasking you with getting your first army up and running and the second getting you to grips with the basic base building. When Mike reviewed 8-Bit Armies, which is essentially the same game as this but in a near-future setting comparable to Command and Conquer, he praised the controls but had concerns over the lack of variation in the game and between its two warring factions. Maybe not in terms of difficulty, more on that later, but in terms of rules you can understand and tech trees that aren’t too complicated.
With a large catalogue of strategy titles behind them, it was no surprise that this follow up to 8-Bit Armies would follow suit and so that’s what you get here, another RTS, but with Petroglyph you tend to get a more beginner-friendly, casual kind of strategy game which is great if you want to dip your toe into the genre.
