Starting the game you should first choose the sex and the race of your character: human, elf, dwarf, Minos (looks like a bull), Lahama (some kind of a demon), Rooh (a huge bird), Skogi (looks like a rat) or Kanchhor, which is, apparently, a snake.

Then you read the sorrowful tale of Oasis, which was a prosperous trade center long ago, but now it is enshrouded in darkness. Ships of desert cannot find it any more, because the evil magician Krachont has built the Gloom Beacon, and now its dark beams hide Oasis day and night. He has enslaved the citizens, turned the former king into a ruthless monster and imprisoned the queen.

Lots of intrepid warriors tried to force the Dark Tower and to defeat the evil magician, but not a bit of it. But now it is your turn to fight Krachont and his numerous accomplices.

Each battle consists of two parts: the chess-like board showing the enemy units and your allies. The squares affect your health and mana levels in different way: for example, a certain square can increase fire mana and decrease water mana by 20 points each, but there can be no effect on air and earth mana. It means that you can choose the better square to start the combat.

As you have already guessed, your character (and each allied unit) has a certain number of health points and four types of mana required to cast spells. The spells are represented in the form of mahjong plates, so that you cast them playing according to mahjong rules. Remember: the spells do not work if you lack mana! Assemble a strong troop, work out a strategy and let the Fortune smile upon you.

Game Features:

• Sophisticated plot
• Original gameplay
• Mahjong style combats
• A great variety of enemies
• Strategic thinking

Spur your settlers on to ever greater efforts, develop a flourishing economy, satisfy the needs of your citizens, and protect your people from danger!

• Create a busy, bustling medieval town:
  Thanks to immediate visual feedback of production processes and the needs of the settlers, real-time strategy has never been more accessible than in The Settlers — Rise of an Empire.
• A realistic and lovingly detailed atmosphere:
  Discover an incredibly detailed world, rich in animal and plant life, and full of fascinating details just waiting to be explored.
• Four climatic zones:
  Four climatic zones and four seasons have a massive influence on resource management and gameplay.
• Natural interaction of the settlers:
  All settlers lead individual lives and interact with one other in a completely natural way.
• Protect your citizens and your empire:
  Raise armies, build machines and construct walls to protect your empire. Everything depends on the economy: Is your empire wealthy enough to maintain a powerful defensive force?
• An exciting multiplayer gaming experience:
  Play cooperatively with a friend or against other teams: Is your division of labor and supply of goods efficient enough to be able to defeat your opponent?

Men of War: Red Tide is a stunning mixture of RTS and a third-person action that introduces a new fighting force known for its brutal efficiency during the height of World War II. Played out across more than 20 missions, Men of War: Red Tide allows to take command of the feared “Black Coats,” the nickname given to Soviet Marines, an elite combat group specializing in engagements near the shoreline.

The player has direct control of new game units including the Black Coats, tanks, self-propelled guns, armored trains, landing craft, artillery and new enemy emplaced weapons to capture and use. New air support options include fighters, bombers, hydroplanes; cruisers, destroyers and gun boats which provide naval fire support.

Features:

• Two Privateer campaigns set in different time periods.
• Two new multiplayer modes: Breakthrough and Beehive.
• New goal-oriented gameplay with several new mission types: locate and either sink or capture enemy ships, blockade enemy ports, or escort friendly fleets.

Features

AI War is an entirely unique large-scale RTS with aspects of TBS, tower defense, and grand strategy. It features single or cooperative play with as many as 8 humans against a pair of powerful, intelligent AIs. These AIs are driven by an AI Progress stat that players contribute to through aggressive actions such as taking control of planets and destroying key units, forcing tough decisions regarding which targets are worth capturing or destroying. Human fleets are usually several thousand ships in size or larger, with games often featuring 30,000 units at any given time across galaxies of anywhere from 10 to 120 planets.

Despite this, players retain powerful control over their fleets in a macro-sense, ignoring painful micromanagement present in other games in favor of actual tactics like flanking. Designed by RTS veterans and backed by strong, responsive support on the official forums and elsewhere, AI War is an exciting and refreshing experience.

• Space-based RTS, single player or up to 8 player co-op.
• Powerful emergent AI that retreats, probes defenses, and surprises even veterans with intelligent tactics.
• 30,000+ ships at a time on 10-120 simultaneous planetary battlefields.
• Different Every Time: 16 billion procedural maps, each with specific units.
• A focus on deep strategy with nearly no micromanagement.

What Reviewers Are Saying

AI War breaks most of the genre’s rules. Which is precisely why it’s incredible... This out-of-the-blue one-man passion project is one of this year’s finest strategy games.
- PC Gamer UK Review, November 2009

I can't recommend it any more highly to strategy fans and fans of space games in general. Innovative, absorbing and most importantly a hell of a lot of fun to play, AI War is the best indie game I've got my hands on so far in 2009.
-Steve Blanch, Bytten Review

I think I've stumbled across this year's Really New Thing. There's a lot of 2009 to go, but I'll be surprised if anyone else twists the RTS formula this dramatically and this effectively. And I'm hoping it'll be the Next Big Thing, because it's big, different, entirely unprecedented and an exciting way to play an RTS.
- Rush, Boom, Turtle: And Now for Something Completely Different, by Tom Chick

Since you specify the parameters of the Universe you play in, there are a lot of replay opportunities and the degrees of AI difficulty and play style will also further add to that, so you're getting a lot of indie-fuelled strategic play for your $20. But you are also encouraged to become part of the AI War community, and participate in its future evolution and development. With DLC already being rolled out regularly, and a planned expansion in the works, you too could be a part of its emergence.
- UK Gamer Review

On the surface, AI War seems to be a traditional real-time strategy, not unlike its similar space-based cousin, Sins of a Solar Empire, with large numbers of units across huge, mostly empty, maps. However, this assumption would largely be inaccurate. Instead, AI War is a rather novel blend of RTS, tower defense, grand strategy, and, strangely Warcraft III “creep crawling.”
- Christopher Beck, The Wargamer Review

Challenging and multifaceted AI that increases in difficulty as you become more powerful, extremely large battles with lots of varied units that promote strategic variety, ample interface designed to handle a large scale.
- James Allen, Out Of Eight PC Game Review
