Verdict (★★★★★★☆☆☆☆)
Though the game may seem like a typical RTS game, B2 has much more to offer, especially when it comes to variations of gameplays. For what it's worth, your tolerance for the intrusive ads and some lingering issues determines whether you'd enjoy the gameplay loop in RTS. After all, the progression system is the main appeal.
Still, if you're in it for the love of survival games, there're tons to be admired here. What's more, the ingenuity of the game mechanics are more than sufficient to make up for its initial slow pace.
