This game, well the original was how my father turned me into a gamer as a kid. he just passed away on March 2, 2025. It would have been so cool to see him play this remastered version. I see some people have had such negative remarks about this game, they may not have the same nostalgia for this game that i have and the happy memories. Thank You Red Alert for giving me memories with my father that I will never forget.

First time playing in 30 years nearly.. After all this time, it holds up surprisingly well.

Extremely good immersion, legendary soundtrack, the game shines through its simple but effective game systems...even the clunky ones that didn't age that well feel like a curiosity that's enjoyable to interact with.

Overall, 30 years later looking back, after 3 decades of innovation in games, this game feels like a pure strategy experience that doesn't feel it has to prove itself through layers of complexity, and manages to be much more enjoyable as a result, offering an almost zen puzzle-like experience of execution immersed in binaural musical metal score and "acknowledged", "yes sir?", "I'm on it"

"Time to rock and roll!" indeed

Few decades ago, I didn´t realise you could deploy the MCV and build a base. I had to max the game speed to see hardly any movement. Turret used to cost 250 to build. Commando missions still haunt me to this day and the big boys told me you could skip a mission if you bomb another building with the commando than the first power plant. I recorder the music to a cassette. My worst fear was Freddy Krueger, quick sand or black widow spiders.
