The Story
The year is 2232 A.D and the crew of “Avalon” has crash-landed on the planet Akris, while trying to investigate why the earlier drone ship carrying the AI terraformer bots lost contact. Fortunately, the planet is habitable because the terraformer ship and its AI bots have done their job to make “Akris” habitable and sustainable for life.
You are 1st officer Graves. It is up to you to protect the lives of the surviving crew. Defend all and secure resources from the onslaught of the out-of-control terraformer bots.
Use the engineering drone, erect defensive turrets, build various structures and collect resources. You need to survive at all costs to find out what caused the Terraformers to go rogue and not complete the terraformation.
The storyline unfolds through cutscenes and dialogues during the game. It has what a true classic RTS has. It has amazing voice acting and the most memorable and coolest soundtracks. And that's worth the mention. You can listen to Iron Guard OST here.
