Beyond All Reason is a free and open source RTS that looks exactly how a modern Total Annihilation should.

I grew up playing Total Annihilation as a kid, so it’s great to be able to enjoy it like this as an adult, decades later. Supreme Commander also gave me a lot of fun gameplay, but this feels exactly like classic Total Annihilation. I haven’t been able to put it down.

10/10, I had to spread the word. These developers have created something beautiful (and that’s a compliment to the original developers also!). Enjoy!

    I love it. I only wish someone made a mod to change the names of the units to their original equivalents.

    The whole lighting engine was JUST updated, and it looks great and performs better than before.

    I played this for maybe 10-20 hours before I stopped. My experience was mostly positive but ended up being frustrating. It felt at times the AI was “cheating” and getting units in impossible amounts of time. Maybe it was just a skill issue but I felt like I wasn’t playing a fair game so why would I keep playing.

    Multiplayer… I played 2 games of multiplayer and both games I was abused by other players for not know how to play.

    I did enjoy the game for awhile and it plays well and looks good. But as above I had my issues, so rate it a 6/10.

      I have. It works great. I’m excited to say it even handled a moment of network loss on my end gracefully.
