Game: Red Alert 2- Yuri’s Revenge
Red Alert 2 – Yuri’s Revenge is a multiplayer real time strategy game for the Computer.

Why is Red Alert 2 – Yuri’s Revenge fun?
Competitive
Red Alert 2 is a very competitive game. It’s fun to play with friends. You can see who is the best when you play a game with your circle of friends.

Tactical
The game is also very tactical. You can be really creative in the ways that you attack or defend a base. There are multiple ways to win the battle. When you combine the units in a good way, you can make a really good attack or defense plan.

Creative
You can’t just simply build 100 of the same unit, because the enemy can use defensive tactics to stop your attack. You can attack from land; air and from water. If you combine these, you can make it really hard for the enemy to stop your attack. You can do lots of different types of attacks by combining groups of units. You can make a really armored army that will only destroy the base or you can attack from a distance and defend the long range units with stronger units.
