Steel Horizons review

All the action without all those red and white pegs

Why you can trust GamesRadar+ Our experts review games, movies and tech over countless hours, so you can choose the best for you. Find out more about our reviews policy.

But your ships' direction and the way you group your ships together is about the extent of the game’s strategy. Once you come face to face with an enemy and it’s time to get your hands dirty, the game switches from the strategic map view into “real-time” battle mode. What’s supposed to be a dynamic tactical combat system turns into a frenzied and chaotic melee of button mashing.
