Review
Mobile Armored Marine is another title released in the very early CoG days. It was pretty long by the standards of that era. During the early days, there was some feedback over certain storyline and choice decisions the game had, although the author politely listened to feedback and made some changes to the content, which is a plus.
The game has a very lively writing style with plenty of humor. I also found the stat system simple but elegant, with a small set of skills you can build up at the start of the game, depending on choices made. Later, you can test these skills on the battlefield, with a health bar stat for your armor which you will need to keep over zero.
In terms of military tactics or story, the game is probably a bit lacking, but the author did address some issues in the early days. Perhaps it would be better to let the walking tank conduct recon and soak up the damage first before sending the fodder in. Still, I think the entertaining and confident writing style does make up for it.
It's not very long, but it remains free and fun to play.
