Freedom Force vs. The Third Reich demo

This action RPG sends original, amusing superheroes back in time for a genre-busting adventure. Freedom Force vs. The Third Reich showcases classic comic-book graphics and a well-designed interface, and six levels of difficulty will please any gamer. A generous single-player mission, one skirmish map for multiplayer action, and assorted goodies such as Tombstone's background story all add up to a top rating.

In the single-player portion of the demo, you control Green Genie, Black Jack, Tombstone, and El Diablo, who must stop the Nazis from destroying rare manuscripts. You also need to keep Tombstone alive the whole time so he can interrogate Nazi soldiers. The control system and gameplay resemble those of real-time strategy games. Move across the map with the mouse or keyboard, hold down the Alt key to rotate the map, and use the mouse wheel to zoom in or out. The interface works flawlessly, and the game looks fantastic. You select characters by left-clicking them or typing their numbers. Each character has a wide variety of attacks and moves available on a contextual right-mouse menu. The download is large, but the amount of content provided lets you figure out whether the full game is up your alley.
