The game is based on fighting the computer run machines trying to outwit them as they do to you/or you can take on the role of the computer and trash the humans. It is very easy to master and play and suitable for the beginner in strategy game playing(but don't expect an easy fight all the time) The graphics are good and the sound reasonable It is worth playing both roles as the scenes are the same but different tactics required. I am somewhat dissapointed that a Wargames 2 hasn't been released but you never know! Anyone who wants a game were you have to think (not to hard)will enjoy this one.
