They Are Billions is a survival based strategy game set in a steampunk world. You have to gather resources, build defences and wait for attacks that scale up exponentially. The name is They Are Billions, and there truly are billions. The Survival Mode has shorter rounds where you face the climatic conditions, build and survive against hordes. The levels are randomly generated. Building and maintaining the colony comes with a fair bit of strategizing, managing and upkeep. You’ll also be investing into various types of defensive and offensive units, each with their own benefits. The world itself is rather pretty in its own grim way and seeing thousands of units on screen is a delight, if a bit scary.
Pros: Addictive gameplay loop Looks good Great depth and variety
Cons: Dull campaign
Score – 8.5/10
