Etherium is a fun yet deep game. The game's pace is fast enough to make every match exciting yet complex enough to leave seasoned RTS veterans wanting more. The inclusion of Conquest mode helps ramp up the number of hours you'll be spending into the game.
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."
