Jagged Alliance: Rage
Jagged Alliance is back – With a new take on turn-based tactics, adventure elements and the well-known quirky mercenaries!
Set 20 years after the first Jagged Alliance, this spin-off lets you experience a road trip into a jungle hell to test your mind and body to the limits!
This time it’s just you and a few allies versus an entire island ruled by a drug overlord and his crazed army.

Can someone please just make a remastered of JA:II, you know like the EE-Versions of the Baldurs Gate games, or the remastered Command & Conquer?

I would recommend it :) It is fun and easygoing with some complex tactical choices. Really love it!

This is a good game. JA2/JABIA was better due to the (JA2 only-character creation) training & arming civilians to defend their homes, being able to return to towns, ordering more mercs & equipment for varied squads, etc. This game is fun but it doesn't make a good follow-up to the previous versions.

Many bugs and not so many content. Still amusing though. Needed 35h to finish without rush (and rage ;)). If you're a JA fan, try it from sale.

Jagged Alliance, But Not!
What can I say without being too critical of this game? It's "meh".
While Jagged Alliance: Rage is a fun game, it absolutely does not live up to the legacy of it's predecessors. It's more like the hollow tree trunk of what once was a mighty oak.
I'll start by listing a few of the Cons:
Short & Fairly linear story: Not a lot of chance to just mess around and improve your mercenaries and their equipment like you did in the older games.
Limited Character pool and squad size: You start with 2 chosen units, and end with 3, max 4, depending on the in-game choices you make.
Small scale maps.
The Pros:
A pretty good turn-based Tactics game
Somewhat compelling story.
Some fun to be had in gearing up characters, but very limited overall.
All in all Jagged Alliance: Rage simply suffers from a massive change in style. If it had been a new IP with no history, it would have been a decent, albeit short, game. Unfortunately, if you are expecting the same experience, or in the very least a somewhat similar experience, to the older Jagged Alliance games, you may be very disappointed.
Play it without that expectation, and you will enjoy it a lot more.
It also seems to have tried to tap into the XCOM success, but again in a very... VERY... limited way, in every aspect of the game.
I will recommend this game, although I highly suggest waiting for a sale.
