Early Access Review They Are Billions Is currently in the Early Access Phase and this must not be overlooked at first. To the Game itself: They Are Billions (consecutive TaB only) is a very simple Game in which the Basic Concept is quickly explained. It's about surviving on a randomly generated map and keeping the allotted Days through. It should be Said here that there is only talk of Survival fashion, since the Kampange Will not be inserted until the Release in Spring 2018. To survive, you set up Troops and build your Sidlung, all quite classically held in RTS Style, gather resources and explore the Map. The first few Days are quite relaxed and you just have to keep an eye on it that you don't have to put a single Zombie into the Sidlung unseen, because the Round can then take its end very quickly. In This regard, the Zombie Infection can spread very quickly once it affects a Building, because all the Inhabitants contained in it immediately swarm out as new Zombies and so quickly a Snowball Fill sets in. Now that you have survived the first Few days and made yourself comfortable, secured Resources and cleared the Map a little, placed a few Ramparts and already recruited the first Troops, the stressful Part of the Game begins. The first Horde approaches you, these are Part of the Game and regularly appear in ever larger Groups and, unlike the Zombies already present on the Map, start your Base directly from the Edge of the Map with The main goal On your Command center. Now it shows if your Defense is suitable. While the first Hordes are still easy to handle, towards the End it becomes very quickly stressful and only a well thought-out defense that is already planned from the very beginning will hold up to the Final Wave. By The way, you don't have to eliminate them completely if you simply survive to the specified Daily Limit. Graphic The Graphics of the Game I think are distasteful, there will be People who love them and who hate them. For my Taste, the Graphics are very suitable for the general Steampunksetting that is used in the Game. It is also quite detailed, although at first Glance it is actually quite rich in Detail, if you take up the maximum Zoom level. But I do not Recommend DIese in the Long run, as the Overview zoomed out widely is already important. Still, the Graphics for me definitely a Plus. Early Access Status At the Time of this Review, I can't really complain that the Game is in the EA or was still in the Closed Beta. The Basic Concept Of the Game runs Round, a Balancing is already quite there, although partially in need of improvement (which is also constantly being dealt with by the Developers) and I personally have not had any Problems with any crashes or other Serious Bugs. The Units AI is sometimes a bit on the Hose but this too has already been tackled by the Developers. My Conclusion The Game is really fun and offers some variety and Excitement due to the repeatedly randomly generated cards, you Should also take every Card in my opinion and not wait for the one Lucky one. The Developers patch a lot and very regularly. New Content Is added again and again and the Developers also communicate a lot with the Communitiy and are also happy to include their Suggestions in the Game if possible. So If you are looking for a nice Defense game with ingenious Graphics in Hand-drawn style and have Fun planning Perfider defense to clap thousands of Zombies and at the same time want a little resource and Space management, I think is in good hands here.
