Majesty
Amazon.com Review
Both the fantasy and the real-time approach genres are so worn out that it is nearly impossible to reflect of a way to freshen things up, but that’s exactly what developer Cyberlore Studios did with Majesty. More of a simulation game than anything else, Majesty lets you tinker with your own kingdom. Its main elements are in building a city and populating it with heroes recruited to enlarge and protect your kingdom’s borders.
You don’t control characters and events in Majesty so much as you influence them. Players used to more conventional approach sports meeting like Starcraft will be a small perplexed when they click on a hero, order him to go somewhere, and watch as their commands are ignored. Characters in Majesty have unique agendas and personalities and operate on their own in accordance with those characteristics. If you want the avaricious Greedheart Thistlebottom to kill that large green beast that’s approaching the village, you’ll have to place a price on the monster’s head. When the job is finished you can watch the hero squander his reward on warm beer, cheap women, and newer weapons. The entire game plays out like a fantasy soap opera, with you as the director and your minions as the actors (with a lot of room for improvisation).
The game’s graphics and sound effects aren’t too spectacular, but frankly they don’t need to be. Majesty’s unique and addictive gameplay overcomes any multimedia gripes we can level at it. Our bet is that fans of sports meeting like SimCity–as well as open-minded approach aficionados–will agree. –T. Byrl Baker
Pros:
- Unique gameplay stylishness
- Watching recruits become heroes and cowards is a treat
- Many missions and scenarios for hours of play
Cons:
- Lack of direct control may not appeal to everyone
Amazon.com Product Description
Majesty is a unique sim, putting you in the crushed velvet hot seat of your own kingdom. With an epic quest before you, you make the decisions of where to build your agreement’s guilds and temples. From these decisions, you recruit a varied cast of larger-than-life heroes. Each one has a mind of his own and must be enticed to meet your goals, via rewards you offer and spells you cast. Meanwhile, you must make sure that your treasury stays flush with cash to support these and other outlays necessary to keep up a flourishing medieval town. The fact that you are being barraged by attacks from mythical beasts and fantastic creatures doesn’t make your job any simpler.
Poor choices will leave your kingdom in ruin, but a wise ruler will complete his quests, fill his coffers, and make a kingdom that will be remembered in song and tale.

Rating: 5 / 5
This game requires no skill or approach. If you can train your dog to hit the “return” key every two minutes or so it’s enough to go the game by the side of. A small step above watching box but far less attractive.

I can’t believe that I was excited to get this game. I’ve had it only 24 hours and I am already bored with it. I have beaten most of the pre-set quests and I am not a hardcore gamer. Where is the challenge? It should take me longer than an hour to beat this thing. There is very small to do with this game. The quests are generic and unchallenging. I’m sorry I wasted my cash on this. It is splendid for my 8 year ancient nephew, but anyone over the age of 12 will be bored senseless by this game. No marvel gamers switch to pc. I like my mac, but it is sports meeting like this that guide people away.

I liked it … when I first got it, but over a cycle of time I got very penetrate of it. The levels are okay, but after a while you realize how dull they are. The graphics are much to cartoonish for a fantasy war game. In closing this game will start off as a 4 star game and will end as a 2 star game, but I guess there might be some people out there who like the game.

This game was very novel, you don’t have direct control over you units and you have to use other methods to motivate them (such as bribes). Eventually the novelty wears off and it gets a small dull to not be able to just take control in certain situations.
Basically, you should buy this game if you want to have fun with it for a week or so (it is cheaper then a dvd, so it pays in comparison). Don’t expect very much long term intrest in it though.
