Not given credit.

This game is the template for Total War: Warhammer. They'll never admit it! haha they even added features to the game this already has. It has truly aged like fine Romulan Wine. If it were released today on STEAM as an "indie pixel game" I'd have no doubt it would be in the top 10 indie list.

Does Not Run

Win 10, 151 GB free disk space. Play => low disk space warning => application launcher => auto-closes. That's all folks.

Great nostalgia - Mediocre Game

Atmosphere and nostalgia are the real draw here but the gameplay and interface is mediocre at best.
