A worthwhile game to pass the time to calm yourself after work and to improve your time management
Cool emergency service rts game, it's really simple and very fun especially with mods
The question I am asked is: "Do you recommend this game?" The short answer is: "No!" The long answer is: "Well, I do find it somewhat enjoyable. I sort of dig the non-combative aspect of this real-time strategy game. But, it just feels lacking in so much..." So, why don't I recommend it? Simple. If I recommend something to someone else, it's because I find it really good. It has depth, something to really dig you...
