Sorcerer King: Rivals

While it wasn't really what I was looking for personally, it wasn't really bad. (And I do note something about the reviews for this game: most of the reviews just talk about some other single specific game instead. I don't think reviewing a game should only revolve around another single game.) I'm still recommending this for a few reasons: - I can actually tell where objects and armies are on the map. This is a huge issue with newer 4x games where everything looks like a busy mesh of busy-ness and blurs together. - I can actually tell where units are in battle. Same as above, when in other games, "units" are represented by a cluster of teeeny tiny little ants, indistinguishable from another stack of ants. - The spell system looks cool - Has UI scaling options - Nice artwork

Not having a great time, but it is hard to give a thumbs down to a game that I have played for over three hours. And I do intend to try at least a little more. I guess there are two games here, I am playing the first one, which I read somewhere is the more fun of the two. Unlike Fallen Enchantress, I feel like I can do stuff early on, fight some battles, though I still have to be careful. I have no clue if I am doing well or poorly, which kind of sucks. And the city building is tepid as best. All in all, one thumb up.

Just horribly bad and buggy.

Dated game. Looks like a Diet Age of Wonders.

Nice game

打折期给这老东西写个安利，本作虽然看上去和前作Fallen Enchantress没啥差别，其实有个隐藏很深的设计导致评分褒贬不一。 [b]游戏中可研究的魔法数量和君主的魔法派系点相关，越强力的魔法需求的派系点越高[/b] 默认君主的点数都是2点4点，但是有些隐藏的强力魔法需求6点8点，正常玩家开档玩几把你就会发现所有君主的法术研究都差不多一个样，玩法画面又是堕落女巫的老一套，于是怒给差评。游戏也因为卖的太烂几年后才有人做了WIKI，实际上有很多趣味很深的隐藏法术，打折30以下买来玩玩还是可以的。 至于新作Elemental: Reforged这个打包整个系列骗钱的玩意，建议等骨折再入。

Really great game with a lot of quests and many classes. I wish there were more fantasy games like this.
