Are you one of those users who have spent entire afternoons or evenings playing Cube, the classic open-source shooter that conquered several generations? The truth is that then you will surely know that from this initial title, several other first-person action games have been appearing, with differences between them, which in some cases have been entertaining, and in one of them, we want to stop in this case.

Indeed, we are talking about AssaultCube, a completely free and open-source title, so you can be sure that you will not be charged for taking advantage of any of its contents at no time. The main feature of AssaultCube is the wide variety of scenarios in which we can develop our battles, many of which have a high degree of realism.

Something that happens with AssaultCube, as with many other similar games, is that although we can enjoy it individually, competing directly with the artificial intelligence that the developers have created, we do not recommend it. Our advice is to play directly through the Multiplayer Mode online, although you will always have to stay connected to the Internet.

In this sense, AssaultCube's online multiplayer experience with its attack strategies isn't too different from what we find in similar titles, such as Counter-Strike, to mention a similar game. For this reason, if you are tired of other proposals that have elements in common with this game and want to try something new, we think you should try it.

AssaultCube, which also has a portable version that cuts some of its contents and features but avoids the installation, becomes a first-person shooter that will force you to make the most of your weapons. Of course, we are almost always talking about firearms, although you must consider that each has its advantages and disadvantages, so be careful when choosing them.

Without failing to point out that in our tests, AssaultCube has proven to be a program that not only does not consume too many computer resources but also does not take up too much of our bandwidth; we did not want to fail to point out that probably its highest point is the massive number of game modes, primarily online, that this title allows us to enjoy, which we will go on to analyze below. We said before that we have several game modes, which we are going to explore in detail right now:

• Team Death Match: two teams face each other, having all the weapons available in the game.
• Coopedit is the classic mode that allows you to edit and create maps to develop fight scenarios with other users.
• Death Match: similar to the first of the modes, although in this case, we will not form teams; we will fight individually.
• Survivor: a mode that resembles Death Match but in which you will not be able to collect elements as you advance; you will have to survive with the original ones.
• Team Survivor: a kind of team Death Match.
• Capture The Flag: one of the historical modes of this type of game, we will have to capture the enemy's flag and take it to our camp. Of course, remember that the other team will try to do the same with your flag.
• Pistol Frenzy: a much more dangerous battle than the usual ones, considering that grenades and other more powerful weapons appear in the game.
• Last Swiss Standing: no guns. Here you will have to defeat all your enemies using only your knives and grenades, so you better be superior in hand-to-hand confrontations.
• One Shot One Kill: you go out to the battlefield with only one life point, and with only a rifle and a knife, you have to eliminate all the enemies.
• One Shot One Kill (Death Match): the same entertainment proposal as the previous one, although organized by teams.

And what did we think of the graphics of AssaultCube? We liked them a lot, considering that they don't present many differences from other similar shooters that have become some of the users' favorites. In any case, we believe without any doubt that the graphics of this game perfectly accompany the entertainment proposal itself, so it passes without any problems in this field.

In conclusion, we can say that although AssaultCube is undoubtedly not the best game of its genre, it does fulfill an entertainment proposal for players who love shooters and first-person action. Especially if you appreciate that a title of this type can offer you several game modes, we do not doubt that you will learn to love this title and spend afternoons or evenings reminiscing about those times of Cube.
