    The story itself feels very much like filler content, but the missions in the single player and survival do have their hooks in me.

    The Red Solstice delivers tense action that relies mainly on its tactical variety. Its biggest flaw is lack of content and mission alternation.

    Ironward’s Kickstarter-funded efforts have certainly paid off, and even as someone who doesn’t dabble much in real-time strategy style games, I thoroughly recommend at least checking out the demo available through the game’s official website.

    By having a great community, developers that are very eager to improve the game and some great gameplay elements, this squad based, survival-action/ shooter/ rpg game stands out from the rest.

    The Red Solstice offers a solid combination of mechanics and some impressive battle moments and can be a title that cooperative enthusiasts with solid friend lists will embrace in the long run.

    The Red Solstice is a decent game. Not for everyone, mind you, due to it's nightmareish levels of difficulty.

    The Red Solstice is a decent game. Not for everyone, mind you, due to it's nightmareish levels of difficulty.
    Some things are done amazingly good, some not so much.

    I'm giving it a solid 7, but if everything dev team promised is true, I will re-evaluate this review in 6 months time and raise or lower the score accordingly. Decent game with room for improvement.
