There’s a unit for pretty much every role there’s anti-infantry flame thrower mechs and infantry, anti mech units, along with heavy and light mechanical beasts. It’s incredibly satisfying to see one of these massive walking artillery guns both move and fire their oversized cannons. The animations of both mech and units definitely add to the gratifying aspect of these battles. The sheer weight of these battles, watching giant mechs fight as infantry line up their shot is an astounding sight to see. Honestly, I don’t think I’ve seen battles more intense or beautiful before. From there, you assault your opponent’s base and slaughter everything in your path.

The concept is the same you build units, and those units take over resource points similar to Company Of Heroes. Then you gain resources to construct buildings to field more advanced units. If you ever played Company of Heroes, this steam-powered RTS will feel right at home. The combat is gratifying, and the diverse faction and unit designs are excellent. Build, Capture, and Stomp Your Way to Victory in Iron HarvestĪt the core of Iron Harvest is a gameplay loop that’s infinitely enjoyable and satisfying. It runs much smoother and should result in a much more stable experience. If you run into any more yourself, I suggest putting the game on an SSD. Performance problems were my only issue in this area, and those have been fixed in a recent patch. My favorite being when fighting picks up and smoke clouds sweep across the arena, leaving you with limited visibility and making the experience that much more intense. Several effects contribute well to the game’s overall beauty. Everything from the smaller infantry to the towering mechanical beasts is designed with a level of passion, which thankfully translates into the various maps. Visually, Iron Harvest is a masterpiece in every respect. It’s quite refreshing and hopefully signals a return to form for a genre long in dormancy. That said, Iron Harvest’sstory is the most engaging we’ve seen in a while. Thankfully these are few and far between, but can still break the immersion immensely. However, the superb writing can be admittedly lessened by some characters’ voices in the game.

The game’s excellent writing works hand in hand, elevating Iron Harvest’s narrative to new heights. This results in Iron Harvest offering a highly immersive narrative that’s difficult to put down. The cutscenes help this greatly, providing that new outlook in beautifully high definition. Characters are interesting and the setting even more so, making it easy to get lost in the thick of it. The plot and the story behind Iron Harvest provide a delightful and refreshing experience.
