It's a shooter, a strategy game, a build and advance game and a serious test working out how to actually play it, so while it's certainly going to eat up playing time, it's also a bit 'samey' once you get used to it, just tougher as you progress. It's not bad overall but needs a lot ( and I mean a lot!), of practice on the beginner or trial 'worlds' before actually playing the main game, simply to learn which button does what, what you can and can't do when taking a turn, what each item does in the tech tree for the best option to progress, what to equip the umpteen player icons you can choose from to get the best (or winning) strategy out of the game and then fighting the mini battles within the build and explore game structure.
