JarlFrank reviews this '99 gem. Although a first glance might make you suspect this is a management strategy game, JarlFrank has no problem claiming this is, in fact, a genre-bender with such a large dose of the RPG design elements we all love that it belongs in our review repertoire and that you should play this game. Read his short & sweet review to find out why.

This review was spot-on. Covered the main issues nicely and no terrible spoilers included either. I feared that you'd take the easy option of giving direct examples from the game to illustrate how it works.

Danke schön.

EDIT- Now I know where Travian's creator got the inspiration from... too bad they made it like SimCity 1 (<- overstatement).
