Beyond All Reason is a free and open source RTS that looks exactly how a modern Total Annihilation should.

I grew up playing Total Annihilation as a kid, so it’s great to be able to enjoy it like this as an adult, decades later. Supreme Commander also gave me a lot of fun gameplay, but this feels exactly like classic Total Annihilation. I haven’t been able to put it down.

10/10, I had to spread the word. These developers have created something beautiful (and that’s a compliment to the original developers also!). Enjoy!

I played this for maybe 10-20 hours before I stopped. My experience was mostly positive but ended up being frustrating. It felt at times the AI was "cheating" and getting units in impossible amounts of time. Maybe it was just a skill issue but I felt like I wasn't playing a fair game so why would I keep playing.

Multiplayer.... I played 2 games of multiplayer and both games I was abused by other players for not know how to play.

I did enjoy the game for awhile and it plays well and looks good. But as above I had my issues, so rate it a 6/10.
