The artificial skill limitations are a bit annoying on occasions. It’s a game that relies heavily on both patience and precision, since you must use your pack of characters to perform different goals. The end result of fusing these elements together proved a killer combination for Commandos.īy allowing you to control an entire group of specialized soldiers instead of just one, Commandos plays more like a puzzle game than a typical RTS twitch session. You navigate your party through maps crawling with enemy soldiers, and must use your wits to stealthily avoid or eliminate the opposition.
It draws quite a bit from role-playing games with its character interaction, enabling individual control of a party with a vast set of skills.
Commandos: Behind Enemy Lines, a game based on the exploits of commandos during World War II, is an excellent if sometimes frustrating game.
