    Good idea but bad graphics, poor level design and nasty sound effects. Would any one actually like to make a decent game? I CAN help.

    Old school Real Time Strategy returns in the form of 8-Bit Armies and it absolutely delivers on the nostalgia factor. Simplistic visuals and gameplay really don't detract from the large amounts of fun to be had. Plenty of varied maps and multiple modes offer more than enough content. Online there aren't any competitors however, which makes you get bored relatively quickly. A fun snack, but that's about it.

    Unfortunately 8-Bit Armies’ attempt at console strategy is simplified to the point that it outstays its welcome after a few hours. Whilst the campaign will keep you entertained for a few hours, the multiplayer is too empty to expect any more game time. Perhaps if you have someone who you can rely on to play against it might be worth picking up, but otherwise it’s probably not going to last long enough to be worth it.

    8-Bit Armies does well to tackle the control and interface issues that have marred the genre's translation to consoles. There's some good quality of life considerations that make the bread and butter gameplay enjoyable, if lacking in options. There's plenty of online and offline content but the lack of variety between the factions could lead to a stale, short-lived experience.
