This game came seemingly out of nowhere, and is violently raping my free time. I mean, it's so goshdern fun that I almost want to knock Age of Wonders down a peg on my favorite TBS list. Well, I still can't bring myself to do that. But just note that it is good enough to almost bring me to do what i thought impossible. I know that this is not a review. I know. Please don't hold it against me for wanting to abuse this platform to proselytize for a moment. The top 3 reviews pretty much say all that can be said. I'm, in effect, only signing my name on the parchment. To anyone actually reading through the reviews for this game and thinking about buying; don't be a afraid. And to the Man who brought this labor of love from his imagination into the matrix; "I likes Ya. And I Wants Ya."
I was late to catch on to spiderweb software's magnum opus but glad to have finally arrived. I would Urge all of my fellow GOG Cogs to take a chance and see if it suits you. The one negative review above is fuming with emotion and subjective gobble-di-goo...So much that i thought I was reading a game informer. :) That's fine as it is his/her opinion..... Alas, do not be discouraged by any of the 'points' brought up in said "review". Having played geneforge as well as avernum, They are both excellent and the mechanics are SOUND. That is all.
