So going to get this. I still love that game after over 20 years and should still have a copy flying around somewhere. The colorful graphics style reminds me more of Lords of Magic, though. UPDATE: Oha, this seems to be a mobile version of Worlds of Magic. Unfortunately that one got ...not exactly glowing... reviews. ojtitus Well-Known Member Jul 7, 2010 3,228 5 38 Male Canton, Ohio #3 ojtitus, Feb 4, 2016 This game looks really interesting but all the bad reviews on Steam give me pause.

Luckily there is also a nice help menu that shows what the menus functions are in the different sections when you create a new game(at least the first time) and the help menu did a better job than what the tutorial was doing. esty8nine Well-Known Member Dec 21, 2013 1,044 0 0 #8 esty8nine, Feb 5, 2016 Deff interested, let me know how it is !

Looking forward to impressions. ojtitus Well-Known Member Jul 7, 2010 3,228 5 38 Male Canton, Ohio #12 ojtitus, Feb 5, 2016 No multiplayer that I could find and be prepared to pay an additional $19.99 to gain access to the all content(races, planes, sorcerer lords, heroes, and special units). But with my short time playing the game with just the initial purchase price content, I have been enjoying my time playing. I will report back later with more but unless I run into something majorly wrong later in game I plan to purchase the full game unlock for $19.99. You can purchase things individually but it would be more expensive than just purchasing the bundle for $19.99. Nullzone ð® Spam Police ð Jul 12, 2013 3,669 79 48 Male #13 Nullzone, Feb 5, 2016 That sounds good, thanks a lot for the impressions so far, ojtitus. 20 for the full unlock? Daring move, to release with such a high price on iOS. Even more so with all the negative publicity Worlds of Magic got. Well well, I am all in favour of full price games on iOS, so I'll go for it as well. Will try to report back later in the weekend. ojtitus Well-Known Member Jul 7, 2010 3,228 5 38 Male Canton, Ohio #14 ojtitus, Feb 5, 2016 Last edited: Feb 5, 2016 For me some things are worth finding out for yourself and so far I'm glad I did. Just another quick note that this game is a battery drainer.

Is it $13 AND $20, or is it $13 for the base game and 7 for the unlocks making it 20 total? ojtitus Well-Known Member Jul 7, 2010 3,228 5 38 Male Canton, Ohio #16 ojtitus, Feb 5, 2016 Last edited: Feb 5, 2016 $33.00 total, so $7.00 less than the Steam version but so far I've had a fun time with just the initial content. Nullzone ð® Spam Police ð Jul 12, 2013 3,669 79 48 Male #17 Nullzone, Feb 5, 2016 Which device are you on? I have some games that drain my Air1 at about the same rate. All the graphics-heavy stuff (like XCOM, Brightridge, Implosion, or Demon's Rise) wants to be powered, after all. 33 total. And? High time we see more reasonably priced games, nothing fecal about it. It's still cheaper than what Playstation games cost me on average when I still played console. Games like the Baldur's Gates, Warhammer Quest, or XCOM were in the same price range, and worth every penny. Will see soon if this turns out the same, and certainly hope so. Off to downloading now... klink ð® Spam Police ð Jul 22, 2013 1,617 0 0 No thank you USA https://twitter.com/BitGamerX #18 klink, Feb 5, 2016 Just give me the whole game for a cool $20 instead of this monkey business. mzinn Well-Known Member Jan 5, 2014 770 0 16 #19 mzinn, Feb 5, 2016 Looks like it has some serious potential. I'm looking forward to reading some reviews & watching some gameplay vids. Talbs Well-Known Member May 1, 2011 2,616 377 83 #20 Talbs, Feb 5, 2016 Never heard of this. Maybe it's a gem, maybe it's a big waste of money, but if I were to just judge from the pictures (I know we all know better than that), it looks very freemium-esque. Those shots are typical freemium non committal to any gameplay screens. Just general game art slashed with the words "build your own empire!" (You must log in or sign up to post here.)
