If you enjoy turn-based strategy, this game will captivate you. The sitting is a star in itself, bringing me way back to an old EA title I used to love on the C64, Seven Cities of Gold. Anyone who remembers that game as fondly as I do will appreciate how meaningful it is to even mention Expeditions: Conquistador in the same breath. Add to this setting very enjoyable, tactical squad-based battles that will challenge the player (particularly if you venture beyond the "normal" difficulty level), nail-biting resource management such as feeding your expedition members, keeping them in good health and morale considerations that affect every decision you make as the commander, and you have yourself one fantastic gem of an indie title. I highly recommend this game. Just be warned: the hours will fly by once you start.
