PLAY IT OR SKIP IT?
Play it if you like real-time strategy games at all. Company of Heroes 3 is a well-designed and polished real-time strategy title that offers an enjoyable experience and a deeper look into the battles of Italy and North Africa during World War II.
TIME PLAYED
I played Company of Heroes 3 for four hours. The tutorial had me hooked for thirty minutes, while the prologue took me an hour to beat, with subsequent missions lasting anywhere between twenty minutes to an hour. In total, I made it through about seven missions.
WHAT’S AWESOME
• Combat. The real-time strategy gameplay of Company of Heroes 3 kept me on my feet and thinking. Each mission is difficult, but not impossible. With a variety of troop types, like engineers and riflemen, and a bunch of skills to upgrade and bring to battle, combat felt challenging and exciting.
• History. Even though Company of Heroes 3 isn’t completely accurate when it comes to the battles that happened in Italy during World War II, I still learned a lot of cool stuff about it that has pushed my interest in history further. I personally liked seeing and learning about all the guns and vehicle models.

• Conquering the battlefield. Who doesn’t like winning? I know I do, and conquering areas across Italy in Company of Heroes 3 felt fulfilling and invigorating, especially when combat required a lot of patience and strategy. There’s nothing like the feeling of saving a town of innocent people after relentlessly fighting off an army for an hour.
• Visuals. Company of Heroes 3 looks spectacular. The interface is well-made and polished, and color-coded troops and buildings are easy to see, even among the cluttered debris and destruction of war.
WHAT SUCKS
• Moving an army. I found it frustrating when I moved troops around the battlefield, because they always spread out too far from each other. For example, sometimes I’d pull a group behind cover, but there’d always be one or two units sticking out and (inevitably) dying to a barrage of bullets. I wish there was a feature where I could control the formation of my forces to make them move closer together, especially in the middle of a battle, so that they could survive.

• Some learning curve. Although Company of Heroes 3 did its best to teach me the ropes, it didn’t completely cover every detail I needed. I had to learn more about resources and how to gain them, as well as figuring out the importance of certain skills against different enemies. I would have appreciated more documentation to dig into when I struggled.

Company of Heroes 3 sets players in the midst of World War II as they take command of their armies and engage in tactical battles against player and/or AI controlled enemies. While the game's multiplayer and skirmish modes are a major draw for many players, the single-player experience is equally engaging and worth playing. Company of Heroes 3’s two main campaigns take players through a series of historical battles, with each mission providing unique challenges and objectives like capturing, rescuing, defending, or halting enemies. The campaigns are set in Italy, following the Allied Forces as they push through the country, facing off against the Axis Powers at every turn; and in North Africa, at the perspective of Germans fighting the British Army.

WW2 Glory: Strategy Game - Short Game Review!
In the strategy game WW2 Glory, you must complete your assigned objectives in order to win the conflict. The artwork for this game is based on the events of World War II, which took place between 1941 and 1945, and the landscape in the game follows suit. The weather's climatic shifts create a scene that feels like a real-world war zone. The game's ability to predict weather changes impressed me. Regarding the military personnel, I really enjoy how they look and how they are clothed because it perfectly fits the purpose of the game. You have the impression that you are viewing a world war documentary. Don't forget to check your missions while playing the game because that's how you progress advancing and receiving rewards. The topography of the game is undoubtedly another alluring aspect of it. I appreciated the work the developers made to create such a stunning atmosphere, and if you are skilled enough to take advantage of it, it might even help your squad survive a difficult battle. The game's music is decent enough to give you the impression that you are seeing a military film; it clearly tries to match the mood of the game. In order to get closer to your target and quickly assault or take them over, the gameplay revolves around how safe you are going to make your actions. It gave me the impression that I was playing chess as to destroy the enemy and pave the path for my troops, I had to approach every move methodically. Although there are no bugs in the game, I detest having to wait while it loads.
