Simple as it is fun

Rusted Warfare is an RTS that's easy to play and control even for beginners. Its main campaign starts out as usual, with limited visibility and scope. Explore the map to slowly uncover more of its area and terrain as you work toward completing your mission objectives. Experience your first enemy encounter, and this is where the action ramps up quickly as the game's diverse combat begins.

The game has over 50 unique units at your disposal. Each contributes to fights in different ways and is upgradable. Send out teams that are best suited for specific scenarios and conditions as you zoom in and out of the map to issue orders. The game also boasts a multi-core engine that makes it possible to have battles with up to 1000 assets spread all over.

It also features a Sandbox Mode that allows you to create your own battle scenarios. You can even use them when you host a game in online multiplayer when you play co-op with friends or battle other players. One thing to criticize is that its simplicity is both an advantage and disadvantage. While fun and engaging, the gameplay might not be particularly deep or strategic for some.
