Ratings and reviews

I usually really like Mike Walter's stuff, but this one's kind of a mess right now. The engine will inevitably error out and force you to reopen the game at regular intervals, and if you send anything but your entire military into every encounter, it will delete your military. This one was neat in concept, but ultimately misses the mark. The Choice Of engine just wasn't meant to do this, and handles it really poorly

After 3 hours of playing, the game tells you "Game updated, the chapter has been reloaded". Your game is lost without a warning. That sucks. It lacks a save / load feature. Edit: it did it again. I don't care how epic the tale is if you're pissing off your readers like that..

Not a well balanced game at all. Within 3 turns, I was attacked by a "small" bandit army that had a power level of 300+, then a "small" orc raiding party that had a power level of over 400 with multiple catapults, then as soon as that ended I had a hurricane that damaged my buildings that I now could not fix due to having all my stock jacked by the raids. This reset my settlement of about 100 down to 9 in 2 turns and basically making me start all over. This happened multiple times.
