News regarding Tindalos Interactive's sci-fi RTS Etherium has been kind of thin on the ground since it was revealed early last year, but the developer has now announced a release date of March 25.
Etherium takes place in a colourful sci-fi universe in which three empires are locked in a ruthless struggle to control the Etherium, a mysterious and valuable resource found only on a handful of planets.
While it is not a bad game, for the price, there are numerous titles which do Etherium's best elements better, and often with: cleaner language, less stability issues, better maps, and a far more capable A.I.
If you fancy some free RTS this week then now might be the time to give Etherium a look. It's entirely ours to play for nothing at all until next Monday, July 20th. It's also been discounted 50% for the promotion.
Outpost building, resource management, fancy sci-fi units to unleash upon our enemies... the only thing to top that would be giant colossi. Oh wait, it does have giant colossi.
GamingLives takes a look at Tindalos Interactive's real-time and turn-based strategy game.
"Company of Heroes, a game that was released nearly ten years ago, offers a better single played and multiplayer experience, with improved graphics and audio. I’m still playing that today and, unfortunately I probably won’t remember Etherium in ten years’ time."
so nothing to do with that movie Etherium...
