*cringe* An addictive, freaking hard game.

Yea, basicly your a castle. You pick people up and kill them. Yay! Incredible hardness. Just some advice; buy a temple and an archery range as soon as possible, and always be converting someone. Play the game and you'll figure it out...

Ugh. I stayed up over an hour playing it, completely forgetting I planned to make another attempt for a successful Sim City 3000 game on my last Saturday night before school starts for me.

Omg... why do you have to seduce me with such games... i was gonna do my homework.. but now....

240,000 points ^^, but cant kill those giants... 3 giants at a time is too much... only way to kill them was with those mana pools.

Hint: Get temple and archery range early, dont get so much archers, save those converts when you get the mana pool. After the mana pool your invincible... i have too few converts to make enough wizards.

You have to convert people using the temple. Just *lightly* drop a person inside of your castle. After the stream of light finishes, you can convert another person. Don't drop a person inside while your already converting though, or else they'll appear right at the gate and hurt you.

Gah, I'm catching up to you Xavier. I'm on level 22 now, well, actually my archers are. I have 350 of them. And 250 wizards. And then 10 workmen. Basicly, I can just let my archers play for me I converted masses of people with my wizards.

EDIT: make that 400 archers and 15 workmen, I thought I could use some more.

I checked around online, and found out the reason for casuaties. Turns out, you need enough money at a begging of whatever round to support the amount of troops you end up with at the end.

Thus, you may have 3,000 points, but 17 guy people specified to a position. Since each positioned man takes 200 points a turn, you would lose one guy as a result of not being able to afford him.

Something like that.

Quite a fun game. I turned it off after 5 rounds but I might go back to it after.
