The Settlers 7: Paths to a Kingdom Mac review

By rvdg posted 25th Apr 2010

This game is really nice.

First of all, the world in which you play has much details. This world can be seen from multiple angles and when you scroll out completely, you can see the whole map you're playing in with all the spots where you have to be to conquer land or complete a quest.

Second is the fact that I love to play games in which you have to create a complete economy. Well, in Settlers 7 you have to. So it's not just fighting your opponent.

Better then previous versions: I think this version is better then the previous ones because this one seems to be played much easier. For example the controlling of your settlers goes much better then before. They do the work for you, you don't have to command them one by one. One general command is enough to command your camp.

Storytelling: This one is really childish: the way it's designed as well as the story itself, but to me that's just perfect. I like the simple way of making the storyline work.

Bad: There are a few things that could have been better. First of all is the engine: you can't zoom in very much. Second: You can't command your army to go to a specific location on the map. When you give order to go to a location, your army goes to the tower that defends the whole territory. Fighting as well is completely out of your hands: the moment your army enters a hostile territory, you can just make a cup of tea and come back, cause you're not the one who fights.

But nevertheless I think this game is worth your time. The 'easiness' in which this game can be played makes it really smooth playing. You will find yourself playing for some ours, even when you had planned to play just one our;)
