American civil war great game better if you could get more units because every time I play once I kill one enemy units more just come. Would be better if you got more units and if your just starting out you will find it hard so piece of advice take time to get into the game and do not waste turns by moving your men when the enemy move and you move next turn fire at them and do not move and do not just fire with one unit at the start use the most you can they will die quicker and it is worth it and god for all ages from 8 to 26 my rating was 5 out of 5 hope you enjoy it.

This game is an action packed game that shows you and lets you play the battle of Gettysburg. You can watch your battle after you have played it and see what you have done. Another thing is if you like some violence there are fights you can watch but there is no blood for those who who hate it.

Good but not great., Aug 05, 2007

by Matt Miller (USA)

American Civil War: Gettysburg is a good game yet not the best civil war game I have played. I have played about 9 civil war games and I will say this game is right in the middle. The has great graphics and has really nice detail but it is a turn based game. You and your opponent will take turns moving your armies yet you will make the turns at the same time so both sides have an equal chance. you have to tell which unit to attack which enemy unit, that can be a real pain, if you forget get to tell one unit to attack or move, they will just stand there and be shot. the campaign is a challenge at points, you are usually out numbered. free mode is to easy to beat, so if you want a challenge, free mode is not for you in the game. the game can also be played online but there is never anyone online and when there is, the severs don’t always work. if you want a game for like a car ride then its a great game to have, but if you want a real time strategy game, then this isn’t the game for you.

Best civil war game ever!!!, Aug 01, 2007

by jordan (Centralia,IL)

There really aren’t that many games that are based on the civil war that are good. But i have to say this is way up on my list. This game is very strategic and it has great graphics. I’ve played alot of computer games and i have to say this one is great. If you liked the free trial you will love the rest of the game. I know i did. For all the fun you will have playing this game it is worth the cost. But you don’t have to take my opinion download the free trial and if you like the free trial get your parents or if your old enough BUY THIS GAME!!!

COOLEST GAME EVER!!!!!!!!!, Jul 19, 2007

by B. LINDER (DALLAS TEXAS)

this game is not only the greatest game ever but you feel the heat of war. I have not purchased this game but i know it would be worth it.
i am a computer crazy and have played many games before but nothing like this. not even age of castles!!!! anyone can play it. what really makes me wanna buy this is the skirmish mode. this game could not be better!!!!
i acutally like the union but sometimes the confeds. i feel this game could have no improvements. this is a message to everyone BUY THIS GAME!!!

You have to try this game!, Jul 09, 2007

by William (Nashville,TN USA)

Gettysburg is the best civil war game I’ve ever played! If you have anger issues and want to take it all out, give yourself 15,000 dollars and them 5,000 dollars so you can dominate! The graphics in this game are incredible.

A Great Historical Game, May 23, 2007

by zac (Usa)

I am very pleased with this game. I am really into the civil war and most civil war games are not nearly as good as this. This game taught me alot about strategy and what it was like during the civil war era. The game play is similar to games stronghold were you are the general. It gives you an excellent birds eye view on what happened at major civil war battles like Gettysburg or the bloody battle of Antietam. I would recommend this game for people from ages 10 and up. I personally think it is a great game, but i think you should get the free trial provided by download-free-games.com before buying it because not everybody likes the same thing. Although no game is perfect this game is still in my top 5. I really enjoyed the full out war experince on this game.

by Tyler (New York, NY USA)

I have always loved good civil war games and this is the best i’ve ever played. Not only do you choose where your troops go but you get to pick what type of troops you want in your army.Then after giving them their assignments watch them up close destroy the enemy. My favorite part of this is how you can play as yanks or rebs and it can be multiplayer.

Awsome Game, Apr 20, 2007

by Tyler Jania (Clinton,N.C USA)

Dudes and dudets this game is awsome. if your in a bad mood and want to destroy something or even just want to learn about the civil war this is the game for you people. It is action packed and you feel as though you are the commander of the Confederacy/Rebs or the Union/Yankees.

Learning History from a game, Apr 11, 2007

by Tuan (USA)

This game gives you the history of key battles of the Civil War - without the boring lectures in class. It puts you in command of Union and Confederate forces to see what it was like to be the Generals back then. Interesting control layouts and skirmish modes makes it a really good game to get.

Very Good, Apr 08, 2007

by Ryan (New York State, USA)

This was one of my favorite computer games. It’s user friendly because you don’t play any one person. You command an entire group of people, and you don’t need to do everything at once, because after each move is made, the gameplay pauses and you can take time to contemplate your next move.
