Publisher's description of Giants: Citizen Kabuto Meccaryn demo
From Interplay:Giants is a revolutionary new style of action game combining RTS elements, like base building and resource management, in a simple and easy-to-understand way that has never been seen before. The game requires strategic thinking to discern and exploit the enemies' weaknesses, and to manipulate your opponents against one another for control. Once these things have been accomplished, raging battles ensue.
The main focus of Giants is obviously the frenzied action you will experience while playing as one of three incredibly unique races: the Sea Reapers, the Meccaryns, or the mighty Kabuto, but the addition of indigenous creatures, called the "Smarties," adds to the fun. If "cared" for properly, the "Smarties" will build a base for you, offering new weapons, spells, traps, or vehicles, depending on specific player needs. The bases will be different, depending on which species you are playing, with the exception of Kabuto, since he is his own base.
CNET Editor's Note: This demo allows you to play the second story of the Meccaryn race.

"Fun, funny, buggy, but still strangely appealing..."
Summary: BUST YOUR GUT-OPEN HUMOR!! Never before have I played a game (or demo) that made me laugh SO hard, I had to stop playing for a while. Gameplay is a fun, shoot'em'up-arcade style, except all the bad-guys are, well, giants. However, no game is perfect... read more >>
