FAN ART

Art style is pretty and detailed.

Factions are cool as alot of variety to them and all have own look and own units and own feel to them so can find one or more to suit own playstyle.

Artifacts are cool as alot of them with own feel and uses and look to them.

Spells are cool as nice amount of them and all have own look and uses and feel to them.

Upgradeable city buildings that all have own look and own uses and can upgraded to offer more options and more.

Lots of map options to suit own playstyle as can adjust to suit your style.

Can be daunting as alot to learn as alot of stuff to learn.

Controls can be fiddly on a controller.

No story made me not feel connected with any of the factions or the world which was a shame.

OVERALL SUMMARY

Overall art style is nice, detailed and factions are cool as alot of variety to them and all have own look and feel with nice amount of artifacts that have own uses, look, feel and nice amount of spells with own style as own uses and upgradeable city that changes uses as can upgrade buildings and more and has a nice amount of map options to suit own style.
