Description
Fans of this classic strategy title are in for a real treat! Everything is in here from the terrific comedy cut scenes to the frantic game play, making this the definitive version of Z.

Under the command of General Zod, it is your job to take control of chain smoking, foul-mouthed, abusive, alcoholic robot-grunts, whose main purpose is to battle it out on different planets of the universe. That is, if they're not currently crashing the ship they're on!

Advance through the landscape and take over abandoned factories and radar sites which will help you produce more vehicles and weapons to aid your army to victory. This is not a drill, soldier! Every decision counts, and if you screw up, you will be punished for it. General Zod is ready to rumble and makes no bones about it! Z is simply the fastest, funniest, most frantic, feature-packed action-strategy game you'll play this century!
  • The classic Real Time Strategy Game by the Bitmap Brothers remade for PC.
  • Challenging, fast, and furious gameplay that will keep you on your toes till the end of each mission!
  • Command six types of Robot soldiers each with their own individual personalities and armed with rifles, machine guns, and antitank missile launchers.
  • Twenty challenging levels set on five planets each with a unique terrain ranging from Arctic waste to lands of fire and lava.
  • Lots of hardware for you and your soldiers to control, ranging from three types of tanks, jeeps, repair vehicles, and armoured personal carriers to field guns and missile launchers.

Really poor remake of an AWESOME game

This game is awesome!! I loved it as a child. However, the port is indeed awfull, and you should not buy it. Movies are not played fullscreen, but in a weird interface, which I really dislike. Mouse controls are weird, hover on targets/pickups doesn't change cursor and no multiplayer... Give us the proper original Dosbox version, or nothing. Not this nonsense.

Shoddy remake, avoid at all costs

Mouse controls are completely botched: Edge scrolling speed is arbitrary and not uniform, making you motion sick. Mouse buttons seem to be swapped, so you select units with the right mouse button and move them around with the left button, which is completely unintuitive. Graphics just seem upscaled, the game does not offer real high resolution support. First time I will make use of the money back guarantee.

Z Remake

The original is awesome. This remake has terrible controls. I hope we get a patch soon. At the moment it's unplayable for me :-(

Half-assed port

As opposed to the Ipad release, this 'port' doesn't even include multiplayer. What a shame. Much like the OSX version, the controls are different (read: worse) than what they used to be in the original game. And what good is the increased resolution if all it does is zoom out and show you more of the map? It's not like visual detail was increased, so the higher 'res' is still kinda lame if you play the game @ FullHD or higher resolutions. There are almost no options at all in the main menu and the AI seems to behave differently compared to the original game. They should instead have: -re-released a DOSbox version of the original game -made a proper 3D remake with totally new graphics similiar to Starcraft 2 for example but keeping the same look & feel. But that's asking too much apparently. Instead, all you get is some fancy new buttons, zoomed out graphics, worse AI, worse controls and no bloody multiplayer. If you still own the original game, create a DOSbox.conf file, put: mount c d:GamesZ mount f d:GamesZ-CD -t cdrom c: z.bat at the end of that file and copy the CD content into that Z-CD folder. Then start the game with: C:...DOSBox.exe -conf "Z.conf" and you're good to go.
