Got Majesty 2 yesterday. I have found it to be a good game with goodt graphics and gameplay.

It is very similar to Anno 1404 and warcraft 3 except you no longer control the heroes, you give them quests to complete.

The reason it does not get full stars is because the game is not very good at explaining your objectives, and there is no custom game mode (only campaign).

I have yet to try the multiplayer aspect so cannot comment on that.

Overall if you liked majesty 1, you will like this. But for new players, it may not be to your liking,

Nice game, good game play and easy to play…

But…

After the first level the missions are the same with different names, build the same things in the same order, attack the same things on every level, and just wait for the win. It had so much potential…

And the fact you cant play random maps – re-playablility somewhat limited.

At first it seemd a lot like Age of Empires and Warcraft 3 without the need for gathering but after playing for a while this game is really interesting..

First off, you don't control any of your units. They all have a mind of their own.. To get them to do things you need to set a ‘Bounty’ or ‘Reward’ on the target or whatever it is you want them to do.

Secondly, The overall gameplay is very unique.. Basically your role is to be the King, you tell you issue ‘Quests’, give out the gold and build the buildings/upgrades. You also get given ‘King Powers’ making the gameplay change in your favor.

If you're looking for a strategy game but sick of the same things over and over this is a great change in the genre.
