I have really been disappointed with the recent games on console, so I turned to PC for some new gaming. I was very curious about the RTS, real time strategy, and base building games. There's something about gathering resources, developing a base, and defending your citizens from enemies.
I asked for recommendations, and everyone said There are Billions is the best RTS game out there now.
First off I have to say, There are Billions is like Dark Souls and its a game that is nearly impossible to beat. The game has evolved since it's release in 2017. The add-ons and updates really made the game more manageable, but the challenge to survive 100 days against a billion zombies is still there.
The game is a city builder and military builder. You have to make sure you're researching technology to utilize in order to fight the overly smart AI. Developers said the AI for the game is like something you've never seen. The AI will literally send a small army of zombies to test your weak points in mini horde waves, then send a horde of 20,000+ to destroy and infect your base. The toughest part of the game is when one zombie gets into your base and infects it. Once your base is infected, it's basically game over. Once the base is infected the citizens will turn to zombies and attack the rest of the base.
The game plays much like starcraft where you research technology, expand your base of operations to capture resource points, and grow your army to defend or attack. There are many strategies to use to survive, but ultimately the find show down is defending your base against the final zombie attack on day 94 to 100. You will get hit on all sides of your base by over 50,000 zombies on screen, so having 100 soldiers and few fences will not be ideal defense strategy.
I admit I have fun with strategy games and trying to outwit the AI. It's a challenge, a few more options, missions, player vs player features, and more bench marks with other RTS games and it will be a contender with the others out there.
