Picked this up when it came out, played through the campaign in about twenty minutes, didn’t touch it again. I must have liked it a fair bit, though, because I’ve kept it on my phone. (I think it was Christmas last year that I played it, which would explain why I don’t seem have blogged about it before.)

Trenches

An early, siniper-only mission.

Anyway, it’s had lots of updates since then and a spin-off/sequel has been announced, so I thought I’d take another look. I’ve been going through the campaign on Medium difficulty and it’s really very good indeed. You need a quick finger and a quick brain. There are plenty of games where you create troops and have them march left to right across a map, but the care that’s gone into this game make it stand out – I assume there’s been a fair amount of balancing over the months since release.
