❤ Distinctive Building-Focused Mechanics

The game removes traditional RTS units, instead focusing players' attention on strategically placing and positioning defensive and offensive buildings connected by a network of power lines. This unique approach encourages tactically maneuvering building placements and rotations to gain the upper hand over opponents.

❤ Tactical Combat Between Networks

The core gameplay loop revolves around players carefully analyzing enemy defenses, identifying weaknesses, and devising strategies to dismantle their opponent's infrastructure. This involves precisely aiming and rotating offensive "Lance" buildings to target and capture enemy structures. The game rewards players who can effectively manage their building placements and resources to outmaneuver their opponents.

❤ Dynamic and Challenging AI Opponents

The game's AI opponents actively attack and defend their own structures, forcing players to constantly adapt their strategies. As the campaign progresses, the AI becomes increasingly sophisticated, presenting new challenges and requiring players to continuously re-evaluate their approach. Many reviewers have noted the satisfying feeling of outsmarting the AI and successfully capturing its buildings.

❤ Replayability through Difficulty Levels and User-Generated Content

The game's campaign offers multiple difficulty levels, providing a satisfying single-player experience that can be completed in 5-10 hours, depending on the chosen difficulty. Additionally, the inclusion of optional difficulty modifiers and the promise of user-generated content through the game's map editor and Steam Workshop integration have the potential to significantly extend the game's replayability for those seeking a greater challenge.

❤ Engaging Gameplay Loop of Capture and Defend

Reviewers consistently praise the game's innovative and engaging gameplay loop, which revolves around the constant back-and-forth of capturing and defending structures. The satisfaction of cutting off an enemy's power supply, seizing their buildings, and turning them against their former owners is a core aspect of the game's appeal. Players enjoy the strategic depth and the feeling of outsmarting their opponents through careful planning and execution.
