CHILLINGO is a division/sub-branch of Electronic Arts (EA); hence, their game is bound to be excellent. Iron Force is the developers' first title, and it does not disappoint. The game is all about tank fights; hence you can expect great visuals and gameplay experience. It is a very fresh release, and the developers are constantly supporting it with updates. The title is from the action genre of games; hence intense gameplay can be experienced as we all know EA has many titles under their roof which have been an absolute hit among the gaming community.

 

Here in this article, we will talk about the overall gameplay aesthetics of Iron Force and review it based on visuals, control, accessibility, storyline, and overall experience. So go through the entire article to know whether the game suits your liking and is it worth the time for you or not.

 

 

Existence of a storyline to support gameplay

---

This game is an action title and has multiplayer goodness as an added feature. No storyline will explain the purpose of the game. The reason might be its very straightforward gameplay with only fights with tanks as the main battle module. There is no need for a story to explain the game's purpose; hence you will jump straight into action right from the very start.

 

There will be a small cinematic at the start that will introduce you to the in-game elements, which will better help you know what you will be handling while playing the game. So on an overall basis, the game is excellent when it comes to immediate and straightforward gameplay, and you will not feel the lack of a storyline to back it up.

 

 

Does the game have good graphics compared to the competitors?

---

Iron Force has been in the stores for quite some time now; hence the graphics are not very modern. When starting the game for the first time, you will immediately notice the old visuals similar to games from back in the day. So if you are a fan of simplistic graphics, you are in the right place. If you are expecting intense graphics with extraordinary detailing, then the game will disappoint you in that field.

 

Spite of being a 3D game feels very 2D with over-focused detailing and blant animations. The game has a sequel known as Iron Force 2, which has corrected all the drawbacks of Iron Force. But do not get us wrong, in terms of raw gameplay experience, Iron force is better than many titles out there.

 

So overall, the game is above average in terms of graphics. A bit more detailing and world optimization will help enjoy the core experience of the game better.

 

 

How are the controls and accessibility of the game compared to other titles?

---

One of the best parts of Iron Force is how easy it is to control the in-game happenings. The gameplay has a tank, and you need to destroy your enemies using your Tank equipped with weapons. Hence having simple and understandable controls are extremely necessary. 

 

You have a virtual analog stick to control the movement of your Tank. Also, you can use the same analog stick for aiming your Tank's gun at an enemy. A dedicated fire button accessible from the right hand will fire a cannon from the Tank's gun that will cause damage to the enemy. That is all you have to do regarding controls and accessibility. There is absolutely no complicated stuff to perform or access in the game to progress. 

 

The controls are excellent, and it is very easy for new players to understand the game quickly.

 

 

Is the gameplay experience up to the mark?

---

The developers make iron Force of some super hit games to expect nothing less in terms of gameplay experience. The game has tanks in it that you use to destroy enemies. Here the enemies are players worldwide as the game supports multiplayer. So you will be competing against real people with self-customized tanks.

 

In terms of uniqueness also the game has done an excellent job. There are very less properly optimized multiplayer tank games out there; hence this game retains many players in terms of its optimized gameplay experience. The servers are very well built; hence there are no packet losses, mainly when servers are very weak. The only thing that needs to be kept in mind is that you need to join the server of your region only. If you join a server of a different region, you won't be able to play as the lags and delays will be huge during gameplay. 

 

 

Noticeable drawbacks of the game

---

There are hardly any drawbacks as the game has been built very precisely, keeping in mind players who love action. The only thing that can be improved is the graphics and visuals, and we believe they have achieved it in their sequel. Other than that, the game is perfect for some multiplayer tank action.

 

Final Verdict

---

Iron Force is a game that will win the hearts of players who are looking for some good and optimized tank action. All the in-game elements are brilliantly calibrated. The visuals could have been better but keeping that aside from finding a multiplayer action game with good servers is as rare as finding a 'Charmander in wild' (Pokemon reference). Overall the game is excellent and can be enjoyed by more players and those who are familiar with these types of games. 

 

So go ahead and use your Tank to destroy your enemies and grab the winner's title!
