Ace of Spades is a game that is full of potential and disappointment. All at once it wants to be a Minecraft-esq block builder, but never truly commits to supporting a construction process. Every time it seems to say “Use your creativity and think outside the Block”, it immediately provides you with a standard, and frankly boring way of overcoming any sort of creativity that is not only incredibly effective, but incredibly simple. Ace of Spades represents the promise of innovation that was never truly delivered on.
The greatest grown-up LEGO simulators money can buy – or will be able to soon-ish, if you ever get bored of Minecraft.

Imagine setting up your own sniping spot wherever you want, with no access points and a secret tunnel leading back to your spawn room. If that doesn’t tickle your fancies, imagine rigging it with explosives and laughing while clearing out a few dazed and confused snipers whose hidey-hole just got leveled.
