I grew up playing this game on the Mac for hours and hours as a kid. It’s great to see that this game has been revived and pretty much the same as the original. There are so many more maps to play, so exploring worlds other than Illuria is nice. I would give this game 5 stars, but there are a few elements of the original game that are not available in this version. These include: 1) no option for enhanced gameplay so armies can be produced faster than normal, 2) there is no option to view all battles (either com vs com or human vs com), or opt to see only battles that involve your armies, making it less obvious which forces survived or didn’t survive battles, 3) the difficulty settings for the computer are either knight, lord, or warlord, missing the Baron setting in between knight and lord difficulties, 4) you don’t get a report or text box after capturing or losing a city of how much gold you won/lost, and 5) when you conquer all other enemies, you cannot really explore the rest of the map as the ‘End Turn’ button is grayed out, meaning you cannot rest and regain movement (this is probably a glitch more than anything, but it makes it deflating somewhat when you do win). Other than that, the game is great and the added graphical and musical fanfare to battles is a nice addition.
