Do you like real-time strategy games? Then you should know that one of the best options you have among those that belong to this segment and also have been developed in open source is undoubtedly MegaGlest. The truth is that this title takes you directly to a fantasy world in which up to seven groups of warriors confront each other for dominance in the world.

As we said before, in MegaGlest, we will find up to seven types of fighters, which we will detail below: Egyptians, Persians, Nordics, Romans, Indians, technocrats, and magicians, which, as you can see, have little to do with each other. The exciting thing is that according to your initial choice within these groups of warriors, you will substantially modify the entertainment experience of the game from there.

Some of the issues that will be modified according to the group you selected in the first instance when you open MegaGlest have to do with the buildings or the different units you can build. The truth is that each of the civilizations the game offers us has its advantages and disadvantages, so you will have to try your luck with them until you know which one best adapts to your needs.

Before starting with the different fights we can carry out in MegaGlest, you have to know that there will be a series of objectives to consider, which is almost always related to finding different resources around the places where we move. These resources are varied and have to do with food and stone or wood as construction elements without losing sight of energy.

As you can see, all the elements we have just mentioned will be essential for you to succeed in maintaining your group of warriors since they will need food to feed themselves, materials for their homes, and of course, energy to obtain all kinds of solutions to improve local living conditions. Anyway, don't worry, as you will learn all the details during the game.

A good piece of advice we can give you in this sense is to be careful with the use you make of each of the resources that appear in MegaGlest, taking into account that if you mismanage them, you will put all your progress at risk. Resources are limited, and at times you will have an abundance of some of them, while at other times, you will hardly be able to get them, so you'd better be measured in this respect.

By now, and if you have seen the game or have installed it, you have probably already noticed that MegaGlest is nothing more than a continuation of the game Glest, which in its time also became known to the public. Some issues are even similar when we discuss the experience in planning and building cities and specific war strategies.

This 3D real-time strategy title is also free and allows us to customize many of its aspects, taking into account that from the very first moment, we are the ones who make the decisions in this title. To give you an idea, you can decide everything about the units, buildings, graphics, and other sections appearing in the title's Configuration. How do we like the graphics of MegaGlest? They comply without problems because even though the game does not boast top-level graphics, it is enough for what we can expect based on its minimum operating requirements. That is to say, those who are looking for games in this segment will already know what they can offer, both good and bad, and although its graphics are not its main positive feature, they are not bad either.

Of course, MegaGlest will allow you to select yourself if you want to compete with the artificial intelligence of the game or if you want to face your friends or people from all over the world through its online system decision is up to you. However, as always, when selecting a Multiplayer Mode is possible, we advise you to enjoy this mode, which is usually much more entertaining than the individual one.

Before finishing, be aware that MegaGlest will need you to be connected to the Internet almost all the time to work at its best. If you want to play online, you will need to be connected to a secure network, but you will also need to be connected when you want to download new content, so you'd better have Internet at home if you're going to make the most of it.

In summary, we can say that although it is clear that MegaGlest is not the most original real-time strategy game of all time. Many of its elements will seem familiar to us from elsewhere; it fulfills its entertainment proposal. That is to say, if you are looking for a title within this segment, do not doubt that MegaGlest will keep you entertained for a good while without having to pay for it or a potent computer.
