Reviews for Cyberknights (#9649)

Moving away from his more usual historical wargames, R. T. Smith created this shoot 'em up where you can design robots and put them into battle against each other.

Although the concept was quite an original one for the time, and the robot designer program is excellent and full of features, the actual game leaves a lot to be desired. As a single player against the computer it's little more than a joke and is rather tedious. It's a bit better against a human opponent, where you can actually put some strategy in and the choices made with the designer become a bit more meaningful. Even then it seems terribly lacking compared to both his more complex wargames, or many a good two player shooter for that matter.

Robot duels and bags of money.

2/5
