Features • a classic real-time strategy or "PC RTS" like in the 1990s or early 2000s • similar titles include CnC, Total Annihilation, Age of Empires and StarCraft • some players said that it reminded them of Real War and Act of War: Direct Action • supports offline play against AI • also supports online multiplayer PvP • units include aircraft, ships and tanks • fast RTS gameplay with no long waits • selection system is designed for easy use on mobile Mechanics • objectives include capture the flag, destroy all enemies, and be the first to get enough money, • transport units across the map by air or water, • stealth units don't notify the other player while attacking, • towers are the defensive buildings, • special units can attack from a distance, without exposing themselves nBase was designed to be like old school RTS titles that were fast paced and actually required strategic thinking to beat an opponent. Here, mindlessly spamming units doesn't work. You need to actually manage your resources, strategically plan your buildings, and have a dedicated attack plan to conquer your opponent's base, while not sacrificing your base's defense.
