We. The Revolution

All told, We. The Revolution comes together to make a thoroughly enjoyable experience.

If you were a judge, would you be a fair one? I’m sure most of us would try to be, but what if you knew that some of your decisions will impact your country, your career, and your life? What if you knew that bringing the right person to justice can cause an uprising, or maintain harmony within the city? We.

We. The Revolution is clearly not for everyone. It’s undoubtedly slow with the most thrilling aspect being the persuasion speeches, and even then that’s just dialogue. But if you’re in the mood for something that really transports you to the tumultuous time of the French Revolution then I don’t think you will find a better way there.

We. The Revolution is a stand-out recreation of the nightmare that was the French Revolution. Despite the turn based strategy mechanics falling flat, Polyslash still manage to put you on the edge of your seat by performing the near impossible feat of making resource management exciting. This is a game that demands you keep your head, when everyone else around you is losing theirs.

Now is a time to look back in anger. The world is as close to on fire as it ever has been in my life, and while this fury hasn’t spilled out into the streets (much) yet, the tension is there. And whether or not you find yourself on the side of the revolutionaries or the old guard, everyone is likely to get burned.

We. The Revolution looks great, and the courtroom gameplay is interesting and kept me coming back. But, if you're looking for a fleshed-out or comprehensive RTS experience, you'll be sorely disappointed.
