DarkZero writes: "Anyone who's played their fair share of real-time strategy games knows that the World War II genre is never in short supply. Full of depth and consistently popular, multiple WWII games are produced each year, at a faster rate than most players can probably stomach them. Some of them are awful and borderline offensive, while others are genuinely exceptional and bring something new to the strategic table. Officers appears to fall gracefully into the latter category. It may not revolutionise the way we approach strategy games, but does an admirable job of distinguishing itself in an extraordinarily cluttered category."
Impressions and thoughts on the upcoming game for PC: Beat Cop
GameSpot writes: "Officers boasts some interesting strategic considerations, including a focus on reconnaissance and realistic supply concerns, which have been lacking in recent RTS games. However, the practically nonexistent multiplayer, the punishing difficulty, the exhaustingly long missions, and a few other annoyances make it a difficult game to recommend".
This game is not for the faint of heart and when you put your energy into capturing a strategic point on the map only to hear news that you've lost an early point it can all become overwhelming. In most other RTS games you can build up a significant army and steamroller your way to victory, and while this can prove a useful tactic in individual battles, with Officers patience is very much the key to winning the war.
