About this gameFull description from Steam
Machinefall is a post-apocalyptic real time strategy game that combines base building, resource management, large-scale battles, and a massive world map. Lead the remnants of mankind in a desperate struggle for survival. The planet has been ravaged by an army of mechanical bugs, leaving cities in ruins and civilization in tatters. Starting with only a handful of survivors, you must rebuild from the ashes, gathering resources, establishing strongholds, and rallying humanity’s last hope against the relentless superiority of the machines. Grand Scale Strategy: A Global Battlefield Earth is your playground, offering unparalleled scale and immersion. Zoom seamlessly from a detailed orbital view of the planet down to street level skirmishes anywhere on the map. Control the action on both micro and macro levels, whether commanding individual units in the heat of battle or making high level strategic decisions to tip the war in your favor. Thousands of Units on Screen: Epic Battles Await Prepare for breathtaking battles as you lead massive armies into combat. Experience the chaos and intensity of thousands of units clashing on the battlefield, with swarms of enemy bugs testing your strategy and resolve. Base Building and Resource Management: Rebuild, Reinforce, Resist Begin with modest settlements and evolve into a network of industrial powerhouses spanning the globe. Construct and upgrade buildings, extract valuable resources, and process them in factories to fuel your war machine. Progress Through Eras: From the Stone Age to the Space Age Advance through distinct technological eras, each bringing unique upgrades and abilities to the battlefield. Begin with primitive tools and basic strategies, then unlock advanced technologies as you progress. The tech tree offers a wealth of possibilities, enabling you to customize your approach to combat and resource management as you rise to meet the challenge. Fight for Humanity’s Survival With a mix of grand scale strategy, intense real time battles, and deep resource management, Machinefall offers an unparalleled gaming experience. Lead humanity in its darkest hour, fight for survival against all odds, and reclaim the Earth from the grip of mechanical dominance.
