Rating: Summary: Didn't want it to end Review: This game is a total blast. I loved it. I had never played any of the other SM games so I can't compare it to them, but I can say that it is definately better than some other RPGs I've played (not gonna name names, that's rude) Anyways this game allows you, in the main campaign, to choose on different routes, of course you need to get them all. The tutorial that it has is very helpful if you have never played the game before. With the stand alone scenarios you can completely modify your character. This game is very addictive, but of course once I beat the main Shadowlands Campaign personally it wasn't as fun anymore, I still love the game, but there is nothing to achieve anymore. If you haven't gotten into RPGs very much but want to I definately suggest this game. It will get you hooked.
Rating: Summary: Great entertainment! Review: This game is great. I loved Age of Wonders II and Age of Wonders Shadow Magic is even better.Very similiar to Master of Magic or the Heroes of Might and Magic series. But much better. The graphic is great, the sound is very good and the gameplay simply addictitve. A lot of strategy and fantasy, fighting and magic, creatures and heroes ... A lot of fun ...
Rating: Summary: Very Nicely Done! Review: This is my first Age of Wonders game, so I can't really compare it to any of the others. I am a long time fan of the Heroes of Might and Magic games and when I saw this in the store I thought it looked very much like the same type of game play, turn based strategy, and I wasn't disappointed. This game is highly addicting and I couldn't be more pleased. There isn't a single bad thing I could say about its game play. There is a three scenario tutorial that gets you into the gameplay right off, many single player options, including a random map generator...and several mutli player options in the bargain. I am a stay at home mom of four young children and turn based strategy with no time limit is pretty much the only way I can get in any game time anymore. Real time is just too hard when you have kids needing your attention. So I am always on the look out for a good game in this genre....and I couldn't be happier with this as my latest find! To make it short and simple, this is an awesome game worth more then the price it cost to buy.
