Default Re: OT: Stalin vs. Martians

I played the game some time ago.
1) It's really short, like maybe 7-8 hours.
2) It's easy.
3) Gameplay is not so great, but dynamic and sometimes fun. Usually you just select all your units and move them around the map until nobody left. The second mission was the hardest for me. When you kill enemies some bonuses appear from them for a short time (health, gold, firepower, armor) so you have to click quickly (I'm not a RTS man so maybe it's not so quick but anyway).
4) Interface and overall technical level is really unprofessional, but at least I had no crashes or game-breaking bugs.
5) Russian briefings (text only btw) were one of the funniest part, they appear as translated from English by some sort of translator program, which reminds of '90s era when 90% of games in Russia were pirated and had the same sort of translation (my favourite example is Baldur's gate where "Cure Light Wounds" were translated as "Wounds that are cured by light"). Don't know how they are going to include this part in English version
6) Overall this game is like some sort of tribute to cliches in the squad-rts type games, but the realization is not so good. Fortunately it's short so after all I think I had enough fun from it
