Strategy
Ironhold Command
★★★★☆ 4.2
Ironhold Command asks you to think a few moves ahead. You gather resources, build a base, and send out units, but the smart play is scouting first and committing later. Rushing usually gets you flattened, which I learned the hard way three times.
The tech tree is clean and the unit counters are easy to read once you've lost a few fights. Matches against the AI scale nicely, and skirmish mode is where I spent most of my hours.
It's not the flashiest strategy game around, but it's honest about being about decisions. If you like slow, deliberate builds, you'll click with it.
What we liked
