New review:


... as (Land of Legends) demonstrates, when one leaves the comfort zone of tanks and airplanes represented rigorously, there can be some unexpected fun.

5th place in Game Tunnel's 2005 Strategy Game of the Year (http://www.gametunnel.com/articles.php?id=398) !

[ErikH2000]

Don't forget that Land of Legends is also in GameTunnel's Player's Choice poll. It's gotten just one puny vote, and I know there must be some more fans of it.

The guys over at the Dreamstation.cc have reviewed Land of Legends in their podcast.

You can find this review in episode #45 at http://www.dreamstation.cc/podcast/.

Also, they'll be airing an interview I did with them in an upcoming episode.

But LoL coverage aside, this show's pretty cool, and I recommend checking it out!

Positives to this game include the easy playability, the interface, which is extremely well designed, the quick nature of the games, which makes it good for taking a break from work, and the light and fun atmosphere it has.

This one fell outside my radar. LoL scored 8.5 in gameplay. The reviewer writes:
...anyone looking for an in depth turn based strategy game will not be disappointed.

GamerDad.com (http://gamerdad.com/detail.cfm?itemID=3141) reviews Land of Legends:
A wide variety of racial options, a lightly themed campaign mode, and internet matchmaking combine to make a game worthy of notice for any turn-based strategy fan. ...a good candidate for any budding strategist.
