==Reception== ''Stalin vs. Martians'' has received mostly negative press. *It scored an average of 25% on [[Metacritic]]. *''[[GameSpot]]'' awarded the game 1.5/10, calling it "perhaps the worst [[real-time strategy|RTS]] game ever created".<ref name = "GameSpot">http://uk.gamespot.com/pc/strategy/stalinvsmartians/review.html</ref> *''Resolution'', awarding the game 35%, warned readers not to purchase the game, but conceded that it is occasionally "incredibly amusing".<ref name = "Resolution">http://resolution-magazine.co.uk/content/?p=517#more-517</ref> *''Rock, Paper, Shotgun'' called the game "rubbish" but admitted: "there’s certainly car-crash value, especially if you tie yourself in theoretical knots deciding exactly how much of the game is satire".<ref name = "Rock, Paper, Shotgun">http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2009/04/29/rps-vs-mezmer-stalin-vs-martians-impressions/</ref> *''The Escapist'' was more positive, noting that "Whatever it was, it's clear that the development team had a very fun time making the game, and filling it with as many Soviet clichés as possible." and "The presentation can be funny, and it's so absurd at times that you really have to experience it for the sheer audacity of it, but ... the game itself is below average at best".<ref name = "The Escapist">http://www.escapistmagazine.com/articles/view/editorials/reviews/6063-Review-Stalin-vs-Martians/</ref> *Russian MTV programme Virtuality and its spin-off portal Games TV were quite enthusiastic about the game and its humour.<ref name = "Games TV Video Review">http://www.games-tv.ru/reviews/stalin_protiv_marsian/obzor_kenny_&_dziha</ref>
