What's Hot: Excellent interface twist uses the mini-map
What's Not: The interface doesn't hold up under the gameplay; Horrible graphics slowdown
This leaves the tedious storyline campaign, skirmish games against dubious AI, and the single-player Conquer the World mode. If you're up for some terrible graphics slowdown and gameplay sacrifices as a result the interface, these are viable ways to push around cool units and watch them blow up. Mostly, they're a reminder that
Universe of War should have been much better than it actually is.
This review is based on a retail copy of the game provided by the publisher.
