Tempest Rising

Our analysis

A classic Command & Conquer-style RTS very much in the Red Alert mold, with two factions and good-looking visuals that run on older rigs. The campaigns are the highlight: 11 fully voiced, cutscened missions each, diverse with rescue, convoy and stealth objectives, powerful units and decent AI. It is badly let down by the skirmish mode, which has only a handful of tiny maps (a 2v2 maximum), bugs, and a missing playable faction. A good game that could be far better.
