Z: Steel Soldiers (Z2)

Big explosions and fun loving robots give a fast paced if slightly flawed strategy experience.

Way back when in the mid nineties, the Bitmap Brothers brought a little strategy title out on the market by the name of Z. At the time, it was considered to be one of the better strategy titles on the list of soon to be released games. Unfortunately, it ended up running against heavyweights Command & Conquer and WarCraft II. While the game didn't sell awfully well because of the competition, it was generally fairly well received for its RISK-like way of dealing with resources in real time. Well the Bitmap Brothers are back again for some more fast paced RTS action with the sequel to Z called Steel Soldiers. They've made the jump to 3D and stuck with the same quirky sense of humor and style of game, but didn't manage to bring that little extra that really would call for this game to be considered top of the line.
