Interesting, but crunchy

by Oliver Oviedo, USA - Oct 20th 2013

This game is highly varied, with a lot of options up front and is fairly customizable. It is a little dry, with a huge number of variables to figure out. It does a decent job of portraying a host of mythologies. The map conquest aspect reminds me of Medival: Total War, or a little of Civilization (but without the technology tree). Overall not bad - but has a very home-brew feel to it.
