Graphics: 4 out of 10
Sound: 5 out of 10
Gameplay: 6 out of 10
Hardness factor: 6.5 out of 10
Overall: 6 out of 10
Graphics: Graphics aren't the best. They are pretty neat, but undefiled
and blocky. I believe this game was made when the SNES was still young,
but I'm not quite sure.
Sound: Music is at least interesting. Though not very good because the
technology used on it wasn't the best, it has a strange beat to it. The
sound effects are pretty poor.
Gameplay: A pretty basic real time strategy game where you play as a lord
and must defend or attack another tribe. You also have your own powers
that are pretty neat. Besides that, it's a basic strategy game.
Hardness factor: As far as strategy games go, this one was pretty easy.
However, for the beginner gamer this game may become a hassle.
Overall: 6 out of 10. A pretty good strategy game, original in terms of
storyline and pretty neat when you're bored. I wouldn't personally
recommend it, as there is other games out there that are better.
