Experience the two sides of a battle while making use of multiple combat styles, from dominating a civilization with epic tactical warfare, to saving your planet from superior military forces with clever guerilla tactics. More than 40 different infantry, ground, naval and airborne units, as well as buildings, many of which can be upgraded to obtain new capabilities.
For starters, the story is generic at best. The premise is that on the world of Kronos, open warfare between the great houses decides who will lead after the death of each monarch. Now the Emperor has just died and war has once again returned to Kronos, with you taking on different perspectives per campaign. The story, which is conveyed both through CGI cinematics and in-game dialogue, is uninteresting at best, and serves simply as a reason to fight your next battle. Characters are unremarkable, plot twists and turns either obvious or irrelevant, and the writing in general leaves much to be desired. Now this is not necessarily a game-killer, it just means that the mission design and game play need to really deliver in order to provide motivation to keep playing. Sadly Battle Worlds: Kronos provides none.
Based in some far reaching future Battle Worlds: Kronos sees you take control of the Yerla faction, as they battle for control in a succession war. The plot on the whole is nonsense, and instantly forgettable, being straight faced and full of grim determination. True facts though, you never come to a strategy game for the plot, you come for the strategy.
Battle World: Kronos has three separate campaigns that the developers boast to have about 60 hours of gameplay. While I have not played all the campaigns, I can see it easily hitting the 60-hour mark. This game is not easy, not easy at all and the game does tell you this at the start. Its no unfair at all, it just does not hold your hand, it expects you to learn and use your tactical nous to win each battle. I even failed the first battle a few times until I read a bit more of the battle tips and worked out what I was doing. The battle tips are very helpful and if you are struggling, give them the once over, you may have missed something vital for you to progress.
Sound wise the title is average at best. The music score is quite forgettable and does not really heighten the tension or drama that can unfold in some of these battles you get involved in. The sound effects of the units, while being serviceable are often very basic. I just feel the sound effects, especially the shooting and explosions, needed more weight to them. It feels a bit muffled and a bit flat, when you destroy an opponent it should feel great but most of the time the sounds of battle are too muted and dull.
On the whole, I enjoyed my time with Battle Worlds: Kronos. I wish it had a more up to date art style but what we got was nice enough and brought back some nostalgic memories of my youth. The sound design could have done with a bit more work to make the battles have more weight and feel more alive. I enjoyed the campaigns and there is a lot of game to be had there. The multiplayer mode, especially in handheld mode, is a lot of fun with a friend and the strategic gameplay is rewarding. With so few strategy titles available on console I can recommend it, however, the campaigns are not easy and you should be aware of that before diving in. Be prepared for a real battle as you will definitely be getting one.

Though the Greek and Roman crewmembers of the Argo II have made progress in their many quests, they still seem no closer to defeating the earth mother, Gaea. Her giants have risen-all of them-and they're stronger than ever. They must be stopped before the Feast of Spes, when Gaea plans to have two demigods sacrificed in Athens. She needs their blood-the blood of Olympus-in order to wake. The demigods are having more frequent visions of a terrible battle at Camp Half-Blood. The Roman legion from Camp Jupiter, led by Octavian, is almost within striking distance. Though it is tempting to take the Athena Parthenos to Athens to use as a secret weapon, the friends know that the huge statue belongs back on Long Island, where it might be able to stop a war between the two camps. The Athena Parthenos will go west; the Argo II will go east. The gods, still suffering from multiple personality disorder, are useless. How can a handful of young demigods hope to persevere against Gaea's army of powerful giants? As dangerous as it is to head to Athens, they have no other option. They have sacrificed too much already. And if Gaea wakes, it is game over. There is an extensive Glossary at the end of the book.
