I played this years ago. Loved it I spent way too many hours on it. I would get all involved in building up my town and forget about defenses and here comes the computer wiping out all my hard work. But I learned.

This game is so great ! You can spend so many hours developing your kingdom and finally beating the computer. If you have not played it you WILL need to read the manual as otherwise you don't know what you're doing. Make sure you turn on SVGA in the options.
