If I have any serious complaint about the game, it's that the first thirty minutes to an hour are the best part, as you rush to fortify your positions and battle off the first few attacks. Once you have a secure "base" and a safe pattern of paths, not much in the game changes. Once the defense software is updated and configured by you to maximum efficiency, it is just that - very efficient, and your fights become fewer. Once you've got a solid defense, the game is really ready for you to make your escape, cause it's got nothing else. No new enemies, no new situations. However, you still have to pour over every inch the base for escape codes, destruct authorization, escort shuttle programs, etc, which ends up being more of a chore than anything else by the time it's all done.

Eigentlich ist Defcon 5 recht kurzweilig. Da aber weder Augen noch Ohren Ansprechendes geboten wird und auch die sonstige Ausstattung schnell frustriert, verspürt man bald wenig Lust, das Geheimnis um MRP-6F zu lösen. Die unübersichtlichen Gebäude, fehlende Leveleinteilung und langweilige Rätsel tun ein übriges, um den Spielspaß zu verderben.

Allt känns föråldrat, och även om jag kan förstå idén bakom spelet så blir jag inte gripen, bara sömnig.

Die deutche Sprachausgabe ist zwar ganz gut, in den Videos aber alles andere als lippensynchron. Die zunächst bedrückend einsame Stimmung wird leider nicht aufrecht erhalten. Die diversen Etagen wurden ohne Witz und Einfälle zusammengestöpselt. Da gibt es im Genre wesentlich besseres. Somit dürfte Defcon 5 ein Fall für fanatische Sammler bleiben.
