Powerplay Game Demo Review

Name: Powerplay Game Demo Review: Maybe | TodayWeGame
Item: Powerplay
Rating: 3
Author: Gaspode

Verdict: Maybe

Powerplay is a C&C-style RTS with fun chaos and serious balance problems. Verdict: maybe.

Powerplay scratches a Command and Conquer itch with light supply chains and base-building. Balance is a real problem, and around 30 of 110 played minutes were actual gameplay. The developer is patching actively, but the waiting alone holds it back to a maybe.

Pros

Light supply chain keeps things accessible
Command and Conquer feel for fans of the genre
Developer actively patching since demo launch
Genuinely funny emergent moments

Cons

Stealth bombers break all balance
Too much idle waiting time
Tank pathfinding gets stuck regularly
No speed-up option for resource accumulation

Developer: Frantic
