  • gameplay
    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is criticized for being overly simplistic and reminiscent of outdated mobile or browser games, lacking depth and innovation. Players find the trial-and-error mechanics frustrating, with minimal upgrades and a limited variety of units contributing to a stale experience that fails to engage modern audiences. Overall, the gameplay is seen as a significant drawback, reminiscent of early 2000s titles but with less appeal.

    • “Trial and error based gameplay adds a layer of strategy, as sending out 15 unupgraded troops didn't work.”
    • “It started with only one commander (the leading unit that hires all the others), minimal upgrades for units, and some interesting gameplay.”
    • “The gameplay has a nostalgic feel, reminiscent of earlier eras, but it offers a unique experience that stands out.”
    • “Extremely simplistic gameplay to the point where it should have been put on Kongregate or left on a mobile device.”
    • “Trial and error based gameplay; sending out 15 unupgraded troops didn't work?”
    • “This is a game I just can't see attracting any good number of people. Perhaps 10 years ago, when games like Battle Realms were still relevant, this game might have had a chance. However, it has a look that belongs in the same era, but with gameplay that's much worse than something you would have seen in the early 2000s.”
  • story
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story is centered around a familiar premise of defending a kingdom under attack, but it is criticized for its lack of depth and brevity, featuring only three missions, including a tutorial. Players feel that the narrative suggests a larger scope that is ultimately unfulfilled, leading to disappointment with the limited content.

    • “The story, which revolves around the kingdom being under attack, suggests that there should be quite a few more missions.”
    • “There's a campaign with three missions in it (one of which is a tutorial) and a rather bland skirmish mode.”
    • “The issue is the story (which is a 'the kingdom is under attack by x, go stop them' deal) indicates strongly there should be quite a few more missions.”
    • “Played the first few missions and hit a gate.”
  • graphics
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics of the game are generally considered average, with a bland art style that fails to impress. Players have reported performance issues, particularly on high settings, when large groups of enemies appear, indicating that the optimization could be improved. While the character artwork is appreciated, it does not translate effectively into the overall game environment.

    • “I like the artwork of the characters, but currently, they are not translated to the game world as well as they could have.”
    • “Bland art style.”
    • “Average graphics quality that makes my i5 3570k and GTX 960 lag significantly on high graphics settings when large groups of enemies cluster.”
  • music
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game receives mixed reviews; while some players find it to be the standout feature, others describe it as non-impactful and forgettable. Overall, it seems to evoke a range of opinions, with some appreciating its quality alongside the art assets.

    • “The music was the best aspect of the game for me at this stage, but some of the art assets are also very nicely done.”
    • “The sounds are non-impactful, and the music is not memorable.”
    • “The soundtrack feels repetitive and lacks variety.”
    • “The music doesn't match the game's atmosphere, making it feel disjointed.”

  • optimization
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Reviews indicate mixed opinions on optimization, with some users suggesting that performance issues may have improved over time, while others remain uncertain about the current state of the game's polish.

    • “I don't know what people are saying performance-wise; maybe it was less polished before.”
