  1. What can gamers take away from their experience with Zoids Assault? Well, first off, the strategy role-playing genre is still in need of a worthy candidate to make the genre look extraordinary again. Secondly, the developers need to hire better writers to create a campaign truly worthy of our time.
  2. 55
    Zoids Assault is a bland, uninspiring game that will keep the interest of very few gamers after the first battle or two.
  3. Zoids Assault is a title that won’t win over too many new fans. It has low production values, the storyline is weak, the gameplay is standard and the audio isn’t anything special; all the makings of a below-average video game.
  4. 50
    A stiff, by-the-numbers experience that mixes a few good ideas with generally middling execution.
  5. I am not exaggerating when I say that any of the many Front Mission games will serve your giant robot strategy/RPG needs far better than Zoids Assault ever could. Don’t waste your time here.
  6. In its battle system, Zoids Assault has the germ of a great game. The idea is executed so half-heartedly, however, that it's hard to imagine what the developers were thinking. So, many minor tweaks could have made this so much better. Factor in a price that's at least quadruple what it should be, and it's not just a bad game, it's an insult.
  7. It's short, shallow and not all that fun.

It is very heavy in strategy which makes beating the levels a true delight. The play is solid, the sound quality is good, though the story was a little hard to follow. Definitely enjoyed this game.

It doesn't make the game unfinishable... but it is annoying seeing as no one has bothered to post the cutscenes online. Full Review »
