Public Opinion Overall Rating: 9.0 9Very nice game. Terrain and sky both look great, good sound effects, good atmospheric effects as well. Teach me how to make such nicely shaded terrain please! As of version 4.3, AI level 3 is too easy, and level 4 is too difficult. A middleground would be nice. Great game overall, keep polishing! 9A wonderful Scorched Earth clone. It has a nice selection of weapons and special items. The bots are interesting on all difficulty levels. I wish things were a little more varied (in terms of tank and missile pictures). Also, it'd be nice if it had music. Overall, it was highly enjoyable.
