Iron Harvest's mech-based strategy can burn a little slow, but the payoff is undoubtedly worth it.

Iron Harvest is a classical RTS game, very insipired by Company of Heroes. It is not a revolutionary game, but the 1920+ universe adds a unique flavour.

For a first foray into the RTS genre, Iron Harvest 1920+ is a very good proof of competence. It's not perfect; while it's rich in singleplayer content, six maps is too little of a pool for multiplayer, and the gameplay could use some refinement. But it's a solid start, and the potential for greater things is definitely there.

You have a first world war setting (somewhat, it's 1920) and giant mechs to destroy everything with. Do you need anything else?

Iron Harvest 1920+ is not just another RTS. Its original setting and ingenious system of changing units make it a game to consider in the real-time strategy genre. As a downside, we can only highlight the lack of multiplayer maps and perhaps a little more variety of combat units, but the developers have already ensured that the game will receive new free content soon.

Though excellent conceptually and visually, Iron Harvest is a run-of-the-mill real-time tactics game with significant unrealized potential, lack of depth, and minimal innovation.

KING Art Games’ first foray into the RTS genre is a more than worthy alternative to Relic’s Company of Heroes series.

Iron Harvest could be best described as Company of Heroes with Mechs. That's high enough praise in itself and Iron Harvest lives up to it. Featuring great RTS combat across an extensive and engaging, campaign, skirmish levels, challenges, and multiplayer, you'll have a lot to bite into and enjoy. It's well balanced and at a pace which rewards tactical thinking over simple fast gameplay. There are a few slight issues, aesthetically it does feel like more could have been done, but it's still a decent enough looking game. There are also a few very minor bugs here and there, but nothing that can mar your enjoyment. Iron Harvest is a game I heartily recommend for strategy fans, particularly those who like the Company of Heroes style gameplay.

Iron Harvest 1920+ is a gorgeous-looking RTS that harkens back to the classics while bringing its own unique brand of destruction. It doesn’t reinvent the wheel, and the slower style of gameplay definitely won’t appeal to everybody, though real-time strategy fans looking for their next fix should seriously look into trying it out, especially if they happen to have some buddies they can rope into playing against them, or with them if you prefer.

Iron Harvest captures most of the charm of Scythe and Company of Heroes while lacking some of the stuff that matter the latter so much fun.

‎Iron Harvest can satiate you whether you are looking for a real-time strategy challenge alone and some war action, or if you need your next competitive stimulus in this genre that has not stood out in this particular section for a long time.‎

Iron Harvest's incredible presentation and scrappy, dynamic battles can't always save it from uneven mechanical depth and arbitrary-feeling limitations. A celebration of the some classic RTS, but not an evolution of it.

Come to Iron Harvest for the mechs, stay for the beautiful, wonderful destruction in this solid and approachable real-time strategy game.

If the RTS is dead, then Iron Harvest is some pretty slick necromancy. A classic single-player campaign with a strong story complements the absolute satisfaction of big, stompy mechs.

Iron Harvest has a unique setting with some original ideas, and borrows heavily from another RTS series. But rather than improve on those elements, it oversimplifies them, and lacks the content to justify its full asking price.

The act of performing combat and moving troops around, though – the core of the game – is weirdly uneven. Moving units is awkward, and the pathing issues the units have make what should be simple skirmishes often risky and sometimes infuriating.
