Bit-Tech: Multiwinia Hands-On

Multiwinia is, at the most basic level, a multi-platform and multi-player sequel to Introversion's second game, Darwinia. Where the original game was just a singleplayer RTS game – albeit one with a surreal presentation heavily inspired by films like TRON, or possibly a game of Lemmings played while under the effect of LSD.

Now, Multiwinia does away with a lot of what the hardcore multiplayer-only strategy gamers would view as 'the chaff', but what the more sensible singleplayer-focused AI-whuppers would call 'the beautiful story'.

In it's stead, Multiwinia adds in a multiplayer-focused and slightly more creepy version of the original's gameplay. It's still the same fast-paced RTS game style, albeit with a more action-packed and arguably casual twist, and it's still just as good as it's always been - it's just now that the game is available for more players and on more platforms. Sounds good, right?

You know what gets closest? Multiwinia. Honest.
