[h1] Personal review [/h1] Much better than the DS version. I love the bouncing mission visuals. There's finally a choice of difficulty for the campaign, but some of the missions seem nearly impossible on brutal. As far as I can tell, the only difference between difficulties is the AI damage is insanely boosted. And my locust gets easily 2-shot by sharks. I'm not a fan of battle royals, but this was better than I thought it would be. Interesting upgrades that you don't see in the campaign, but still improves the battle royal. Over 50 different [b] tastefully [/b] colored amoebas. Overall, better improvement from the DS version. I hope more content will be added in the future.

About the Game
Amoeba Battle is a new breed of RTS game where you control amoebas as they battle against the infection that threatens their realm. Explore beautiful yet alien landscapes to feed and strengthen your fledgling amoebas!EXPLORE AND FEED:
Find algae for herbivores, go hunting with carnivores, or just eat everything with omnivores! Once an amoeba has eaten enough food, it becomes well fed. A well fed amoeba does more damage, but more importantly, it can replicate into two amoebas!AMOEBAS DON'T NEED BASES:
Unlike other RTS games, there are no bases to build - amoebas don't build houses or towns after all! New amoebas are created through the miracle of binary fission; well fed amoebas can replicate into two identical amoebas, doubling your army with a click of the mouse!MUTATION IS EVOLUTION:
Multiplying amoebas won't always be enough. When the competition gets tough, introduce mutations to evolve your weaker amoebas into stronger species. Experiment with different amoeba combinations to field a diverse force that can face any threat!
Experience an innovative real-time strategy game on a never-before-seen scale and battle for primordial soup-remacy in Amoeba Battle!

- SINGLE-PLAYER STORY:
Stop the infection and take back the microscopic world! New to RTS? Or perhaps an RTS master? Choose from four difficulty levels to tailor your experience. - CO-OP ROGUELIKE CAMPAIGN MODE:
Outbreak is a roguelike RTS campaign mode that can be played solo or co-op with up to two friends. In an Outbreak campaign, you will traverse a randomized microscopic world with dynamically generated missions. Outbreak is designed to have endless replayablity, and no two campaigns will ever play out the same! - CROSS-PLATFORM MULTIPLAYER:
Compete against other players in our 18-player Battle Royale Versus mode or take on the AI in Skirmish, either solo or with up to two friends, across console or PC. - INNOVATIVE RTS GAMEPLAY:
Unlike other RTS games, there are no bases to build - you will need to feed, multiply, and evolve your amoebas to claim victory. Every amoeba is not just a fighter, but a potential army via the miracle of binary fission. And through the power of evolution, even the lovable Locust can grow and evolve into an unbreakable Ursa! - IMPACTFUL TACTICAL DECISIONS:
Utilize the inherent adaptations of herbivores, omnivores, and carnivores to your advantage, such as carnivore stealth and omnivore mobility. Make use of special terrain features, like Spawning Pools that cut replication times in half. Turn the tide of battle with deployable Probes, such as Cryo Probes that slow enemies to a crawl. - DELIGHTFUL ART STYLE:
Journey through four exotic landscapes and battle with nine species of amoeba, all delicately rendered using a remarkable fusion of watercolors and pixel art. - FAMILIAR RTS CONTROLS:
Employ fully featured keyboard + mouse controls including control groups, box selection, hotkeys, waypoint queues, and more. If you prefer joysticks and buttons, feel free to plug in a controller instead!

User Reviews
Fun strategy game that favors better strategizing over brute-forcing in the harder difficulties, pleasant graphics in both the menus and the game and runs very well even on lower-end computers.
It's cute and an rts and we need more cute rts's.
Cute game, however the controls are difficult to manage and after awhile the AI becomes to overpowered. They constantly chase you down and give you no time to create you army. Also the army cap is 25 creatures which doesn't give you enough to diversify you army how you want to. overall a decent game that needs a lot of core fixes.
The game is fun but it lacks much substance as I'm pretty sure it's more or less just an updated port of the original DS ware game. The entire campaign can be beaten in 3 or 4 hours and it's really just a very long tutorial. The actual RTS elements are light but they are there, you don't have to worry about base building or micromanaging 100 units at a time which I appreciate. Besides the campaign there is only 2 game modes one of which is in "beta" (and I'm fairly sure it will never leave beta). With all that said I think the game is actually very fun and easier to control than the original DS game, but for $15 USD there really isn't enough content to justify the price tag as you can see everything there is to see in about 10 hours. (and that's being generous) I would recommend buying it when it's on sale as the content that's there is very fun. Note: the multiplayer is dead so you have to bring friends if you don't want to fight only AI
Fun game and the new modes are awesome. I Played it on the DSI so i was amazed at the new Outbreak mode. Update: The developer is active in the Discord and we got to play a 3v3 battle against them with other players.
I can't decide, if this is a well made baby's first RTS, in which case it would be a lovely addition to the genre, or an attempt gone wrong to cutify an RTS war scenario, in which case it might still be a lovely addition to the genre. Basebuilding is completely out, because amoebas produce units by mitosis and upgrade by metamorphosis (NOT EVOLUTION! GET YOUR TERMS RIGHT!). it is competent, a bit slow, and has some harsh difficulty spikes. But it is a nice divergence from the war-like scenarios of humans vs aliens, humans vs humans, robots vs goo, etc. Follow my curator at https://store.steampowered.com/curator/28337205-Fair-Minded-Witness/
I played this game a lot back in middle-high school on mobile, though I lost track of it until recently. I had given up hope in ever playing it again. So it was a nice surprise to find it on steam. It's a great game, even if there doesn't seem to be anyone in the online mode.
pretty dope
This is a GREAT game, relaxing, yet challenging, you'll find yourself playing it for hours. I've always wanted to play this game again, having experienced it on my DSI, and it didn't disappoint. Despite the game already being wonderful, there's more to come, and still time for the game to grow.
