Z

aka: Z Origins: Z The Game, Z: The Game
Moby ID: 346

DOS version

C&C on Speed, Acid, etc.

The Good
The game seemingly plays like a realtime strategy game, but when you finally order pizza, sit back and relax (while pondering on how to crush the enemy)...the whole game goes ape on you, and you're stuck in a frantic "capture the flag" rollercoaster ride which will seem insanely fast-paced at first, but will become one hell of a wargame after you adjust to it. The cutscenes can be hilarious at times.

The Bad
The graphics are quite oldskool, and can be quite dated...if you have the chance to take a good look at them.

You also would like to crawl into your computer sometimes to kill the annoying robots with their panicky, smartass comments. (That's possibly one of the nice things about the game: you get quite in character after a while)

The Bottom Line
Command & Conquer, Amiga graphics, while accidentally joining a frantic deathmatch ;)
