Multiwinia

[kiniki]

Just downloaded this from Steam, for a quick online blast its pretty good.

For anyone who has played the original singleplayer game Darwinia, you'll feel pretty at home with the controls.. Graphics seem a little more polished... but not by a great distance... that said, its not really about graphics with this one!

For anyone who hasn't played it, its basically a Multiplayer RTS.. but very quirky.. Lots of different map types, assault, domination, CTF and others.. With most of the games ranging between 5 and 20 minutes..

I've had a couple of games... currently getting my butt handed to me, even though I played the original loads... It's lots of fun, but currently not enough open games, but you can host your own and it doesn't take much of a PC to run it...

Anyone else playing? What are your thoughts on it?

I play it.

Best fun I had in a month. It's realy awesome, and rhere are many situations when The word EPIC gets a new the most EPIC meaning.

Awesome - you must get it

I've got it. Its a really awesome game. I like it so much partially because its a 10 minute RTS. And being in college right now, I really appreciate that, as I can't really afford a 6 hour SupCom game.

That said, I more or less suck at it. Because I'm no good with pure strategy games. Multiwinia isn't about researching the best unit or whatever, but more purely about where and how you move your Multiwinians.

The bad things:
This game may not appeal to hardcore RTS players.
UI is a little simplified. But its a simple game.

I give it 8+ to 9/10.

Regardless of everything else, every single one of you should download the demo off of Steam!!
