Knights and Merchants

Best left in the past

I'm an avid fan of rts sim games and after reading some of the reviews here I figured I'd give this a go since it was on sale. I have to say that this was a waste of the $2 i spent on it. I played the tutorial for about an hour before I realized that the game was going to be slow and painful for the entire experience. I can see how at one point in the past this game would have been fantastic, but it clearly hasn't aged well. Settlers and other similar games are much improved and far more entertaining. Playing this felt like watching grass grow. You queue up some actions and sit and watch as your units slowly enact them. If the game had the option of speeding up time I may have considered it playable, but as it is it's just far too slow. If you're not purchasing this game for nostalgia's sake stay far away from it.
