Part intense fighting-action, part thought-provoking strategy, pure vicious head-to-head mayhem
LucasArts title that transports players to a fantasy universe for an Archon-like mix of strategy and action. Players engage in both single and multiplayer battles with more than 30 fierce, mythological creatures from four realms. The creatures take turns moving on a tactical map screen, with the ultimate goal of capturing strategically placed temples. When a battle starts, the overhead world view shifts to a battle angle, and the two battle it out in real time, playing out much like a 3D action-fighter. Each character has special attributes, powers and attacks, but all characters have the power to unleash their wrath to defeat opponents and dominate the universe.
The game's not ideal on every level, but it's good enough on all of them so that it should provide an entertaining experience and a decent amount of replay value for those who enjoy equal parts methodical strategy and button-mashing mayhem.
Both demanding and highly enjoyable at the same time, thus making this a love-it-or-hate-it type of game.
A solid title. The AI can sometimes be frustratingly stubborn, and the battles can take a long, long time to complete, but there's plenty to like here.
