An overall rating of 86% is the result of Gameguru Mania's 'SpellForce' review.Developed by Phenomic (the team behind the world-famous Settlers 1 and Settlers 3), Spellforce is a real-time strategy game which uses role-playing elements, along with some new gameplay mechanics. Spellforce offers intriguing main storyline which seems like it was inspired by Tolkien's work. In a world far away, thirteen magicians, blinded by the promises of some evil gods, have ignited chaos and mayhem in their greedy pursuit for god-like power. Summoned by the magicians through dark rituals, fierce elemental powers have torn the world's continents apart. Remaining are small islands, floating in the sky, connected by magic portals. Now, 8 years after the end of this huge sorcerer's war, evil tries to make its way back into the world and to finish what it once began. It's only up to you to reunite the races and the world before the evil that caused the fracture do something even worse. |
