As you’re not restricted to a timer or the threat of the enemy invading your base, it’s all about taking your time.
The parts where you don’t have your own camp, although you may have a few squads, felt much slower than your usual RTS game.
As a person who hates stealth games and segments (because I suck at them), there were some moments that I didn’t like within Ancestors Legacy, but the majority of the game is much more forgiving and combat-focused instead. There are a few missions that will utilise both methods by having you on your own and hiding at first, but then you’ll find a camp and move over to the second playstyle. The game itself, from what I’ve played so far, appears to consist of two gameplay styles – base management and expansion, and stealthy exploration missions. However, don’t take that the wrong way – this game requires a lot of strategic planning if you wish to survive long enough to see the credits roll. Although, the actual gameplay mechanics, specifically in the town building and expanding, seems rather simplistic and almost like an introduction to the genre more than a full-on strategic RTS game. The game is identical to the PC version which came out last year, which is great, with the only difference being that the control scheme has been updated so you can use a controller (having the option to still use a mouse and keyboard would have been nice – I’ve tried, it doesn’t work). Is Ancestors Legacy a full RTS game? I would say, yes and no. ‘Tis but a flesh wound! (Cinematic camera mode ftw!)
