Is Metal Marines still worth playing in 2026?

A real-time strategy game where you build your base, manage resources and launch missile and robot assaults on the enemy island. The concept of anticipatory warfare and defensive placement has potential, with genuine thought about attacking and protecting at once. The heavy interface and at times confusing pace limit it by current standards. A strategic curio for console genre fans and the curious about period RTS.
