Is Trench Lord: Eastern Front worth it for you?
We tell you who should skip it, too.
Play it if you…
Good fit- WWII strategy fans who want historical Eastern Front campaigns
- Players who prefer squad command over individual combat
- Solo players seeking a released RPG mode alongside campaign missions
Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking a completed multi-faction campaign may stop at the available Soviet campaign, since the German campaign is planned for later.
- Players wanting open-ended battlefield creation may hit a wall after the linear campaign and released RPG mode, because custom and workshop modes are planned rather than available.
- Players looking for alien tower-defense combat will find Anomaly: Warzone Earth's setting and reversed tower-defense structure absent here.
Our take on Trench Lord: Eastern Front
The bounce point arrives for players expecting both sides of the conflict at launch: the Soviet campaign is completed, but the German perspective is still planned. Those seeking custom maps or adjustable battlefield setups face a similar boundary because those modes are future plans.
What is Trench Lord: Eastern Front?
Trench Lord: Eastern Front is an action-strategy game about commanding squads during WWII battles on the Eastern Front.
Campaigns cover more than 20 battlefields, including Stalingrad and Kursk, with urban combat, winter warfare, and armored engagements. Players deploy units, build defenses, organize assaults, break encirclements, and choose routes through linear levels. The game includes infantry weapons, tanks, armored trains, field artillery, howitzers, rocket barrages, and airstrikes. The completed Soviet campaign is available, while a German campaign is planned for a future release.
