“Avoid. Its not fun at all. Actually its UNFUN and just straight up frustrating. Its basically TEMU version of Company of Heroes but without anything that made the classic so good. There is so much wrong with it I could…”
“As much as I do like this game and I have enjoyed what I have managed to actually play, the game is fundamentally broken. The campaign will softlock the game and make you lose your progress when cutscenes are meant to…”
“the game actually started with a great concept and the artwork is quite impressive. yet, it can’t escape feeling like company of heroes with a little makeup. same gameplay, same units, same buildings, same missions.…”

“Game is cool. Unfortunately it's also ♥♥♥♥. I love pushing into enemy base, and they just spawn a max level heavy mech, a level 1 mech, rocket artillery, and multiple mech suit infantry despite only having 3 buildings…”
“Like some of the reviews have mentioned, this is just a frustrating and disappointing game. It had so much potential to be great. They've nailed it in the art department with the theme of steampunk. The units and the…”

“Such a cool game with so many possibilities, ruined and abandoned. The actual board game Scythe is amazing to play, and the artwork created by Jakub Różalski is incredible, it really nails that dieselpunk, war-era…”
“Fun Game, feels like a mix of c&c and company of heroes. Still fun after 5 hours I am still going through the campaign really enjoying the story so far.”
“Its ever so slightly jank and a little cheesy but overall its pretty fun and the story is fun so far. Basically a Company of Heroes 1/dawn of war clone but in a dieselpunk post WW1 world. Pretty f'in cool really. Played…”

“Played for over 40 hours, finished the main campaign and DLC's. Game is fun if you like RTS, has cool units and quite a good story. The game ends on a cliffhanger tho which I do not like when I have spent this much time…”
“If you are here for the steampunk, I can tell you it also comes with good enough rts and more than enough contents (story & challenges) to kept you busy for a long time for both dedicate or casual play.”
“Quite a lot of content and fun unit designs. Could do with more multiplayer options like making campaign world map multiplayer as well.”

“IMHO this is a very fun and the only Diesel Punk WWI themed RTS out there to this day. I do notice that sadly the multiplayer aspect of this game is not as big as during it's early days, however for I'm glad that…”
“I really like this game, the style, the gameplay, the music. It's really solid all around. However I am bad at RTS games so I've struggled to beat it, but you can play the campaign in co-op and that's awesome and makes…”

“i do Not want to call the story woke, it is NOT. But... You play as some random peasant girl, who needs to tell experienced soldiers how to fight wars? And these soldiers always gush about how amazing she is? Many basic…”
“PROS: Good idea CONS: BORING story, BORING campaign, Ugly mechs, Units barely shooting from buildings, Very lag if more than 3 Mechs, Not fun at all”
“A bit disappointed. Game play is janky, mech units constantly get stuck, the bear is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ annoying and the characters voices are awful to listen to. Got bored half way through the third mission.”

“An RTS, with mechanics similar to the Company of Heroes franchise set in the 1920’s alternate history setting with mechs that is also used for the boardgame Scythe. So, squad-based, smaller scale, cover, territory control from COH and steam powered mechs mixed with older style…”
— a player, Steam review · 71 hrs played“I really like Iron Harvest but it's not a game you will play for years to come. The thing that make this game unique is the setting with its immaculate dieselpunk vibes and asethetics and that the people at Kingart Games really nailed.”
— a player, Steam review · 36 hrs played“Iron Harvest has a completely broken campaign. You cannot finish it. At a certain point in the mission, when the game tries to trigger a cutscene, it crashes. This happens consistently and makes progression impossible. I replayed the mission multiple times and it always crashes…”
