GameFocus

Project Aftermath is one of the best examples of why independent games are the true soul of PC gaming and worth your time exploring and while no multiplayer support is hurting the long term value of the game, the future updates, price and multiple ways to replay the game and make it a must buy for RTS fans.

GamingExcellence

Project Aftermath as a game combines the brain power of a good chess match, the fire power of a good war movie, and the common sense of hopefully most people on the planet to create a hearty strategy game where things start moving and stay moving through every level.

Total PC Gaming

Project Aftermath is a professional-looking and thoughtfully-designed RTS.

MEGamers

Project Aftermath shows that you don’t need mountains of cash to make a good game, as long as you get the basics of the game right. Throw in the much-needed multiplayer mode, and you’ve got an absolute winner.

Gaming Nexus

Project Aftermath is a fun little RTS morsel that tries a few new twists on the genre, and manages to succeed at most of them.

Thunderbolt

Borrowing elements from a number of genres turns out to be Project Aftermath’s greatest strength. It rolls its tactical and RPG features into one very digestible and unique strategy package.

Cheat Code Central

This game has a lot to offer. You can play through the campaign several times because you can approach the mission differently each time.

PC Zone UK

Well-written, well thought-out, and an entertaining game that would have been a bargain before the pound went to sh.t. [Dec 2008, p.70]

GamingXP

Project Aftermath is a solid strategy-game which makes fun. It is very cheep, indeed, you can get it from the developer’s website for about $10.

Worth Playing

It's not clear who Project Aftermath is supposed to appeal to, which makes it difficult to recommend over the numerous better, more polished options in either category.

At its best, Project: Aftermath achieves mild boredom. At its worst, it caused my girlfriend to come and investigate cries of pain.

Absolute Games

Oversimplified gameplay, plain-looking graphics, ridiculous storyline, tasteless title… Project Aftermath is a true fount of tired conventions and bad RTS clichés.
