I enjoyed playing this game a while back, and decided to play it again. It's so much fun! Combat needs a bit getting used to, and sometimes it's difficult to figure out how things work, but eventually it all clicks together into an amazing adventure!
It's such a great game. Create your little town, manage your economy and expand. You start by making buildings that provide resources, and slowly you expand with buildings that consume resources to provide other resources, eventually creating strong armies that take down all opponents. Creating a nice balance is the key to expanding fast.
