Review by Pierre-Yves L. Warlock 2: The Exiled is an amazing change of pace from some of the other strategy games that I’ve played in the past few years. Instead of the typical earthly factions of different civilizations where a predictable rock/ paper/ scissors format provides a safe strategy framework…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Drums of War is something I would have expected to play a decade ago. That’s not a criticism, but rather an understanding at the start of this review that I know this game isn’t going to even come close to appealing to the mass market. In…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. I like playing empire-building strategy games on my iPad. The genre works great on touch screens thanks to its slow and methodical pace, and when done well they are so strategic; not only are you in control of the rank and file during direct conflict, but…
