    A remake that proves that old games can still be fun even with some minor hiccups due its age. Fun, cheap and beautiful RTS along the lines of Age of Empires.

    Cossacks 3 is a good RTS with a lot of addictive features. It's historically correct, the background music is excellent and it simply is an amazing game without adding too many distractions.

    Straightforward, simple, but slick and solid. Cossacks is comfort food, but it feels sufficiently of today despite its cheerfully throwback heart. I had a good time, and most of all I realised that I’m more than ready for this once so staid of genres to come back in earnest.

    This game rather looks like it belong to the year 2005 than 2016.

The worst thing is the static vegetation - totally ruins the atmosphere for me. Water looks like something from the original Age of Empires from 90s. I lost most of my interest during the first 5 minutes in the game just because of the way it looks.… Full Review »

    Terrible, terrible optimisation for that pretty bad graphic (worst than 8-years old Red Alert 3). Bad AI compare to ANY Total war game. ITerrible, terrible optimisation for that pretty bad graphic (worst than 8-years old Red Alert 3). Bad AI compare to ANY Total war game. I recommend that game only if you want some nostalgic feelings if you play Cossacks 2 back in the 2005. IgorDyx said that it's a remake, but it's not. And Starcraft 2 compare to Starcraft made a big leap not only in a graphics but in a gameplay and story. And that guy also give the Thief 2014 8/10 so it's must something wrong with his sense of reality.… Full Review »
