So, I wanna start of by saying that I enjoy this game alot! It reminds me alot of old Flash games of the past. Level selection, the 2D view, graphics, game mechanics it just hits the spot. The Levels stay fresh by the frequent introduction of new game mechanics and units level by level. The game is heavily inspired by Stronghold, I can only imagine the dev must be a huge fan of it. Many of the game mechanics are implemented in an almost 1 to 1 fashion, yet still feel fresh as it’s from a different perspective and the old age of the classic strongholds.

Also I’m a huge fan of the humorous voice acting, this really puts this game apart from being generic. I like the long drawn out……sire… after most of the pompous sentences. You can tell the voice actors had a lot of fun in the studio recording this and it does the game wonders. Almost feels like a bit of a mockery of strongholds advisor, hilarious. Game is a good challange even on normal, altough I’d have to reassess that, since I only found out on the last level of the first area, that you can increase workers in Lumbercamps and Quarrys, making your eco much stronger early on. The levels seem very well designed, as you’ll need every inch of space available to beat the enemy. Also does a great job at making new game mechanics relevant to the appropriate level. The game engages you in actually using the economy aspect of raising/lowering taxes and rations to beat earlier waves. The game has a suprising amount of depth to it, that you wouldn’t expect from a game like this.
