Adventure Game from Ubi Soft Entertainment, by Enlight Software
RTS game premised on a conflict between humans and an alliance of alien races (the Fryhtan). It is played on an isometric landscape. | Game options include single-player campaigns, stand-alone scenarios and a multi-player mode. You choose one of twelve human tribes, including the Egyptians, Persians or Romans. Both sides in the conflict are made up of alliances (seven different types of aliens form the Fryhtan). There are ethical constraints, for instance humans get penalized for destroying neutral settlements, whilst the Fryhtans get bonuses for killing civilians. The gameplay involves resource management, unit construction, research and development, combat and diplomacy. Espionage and trade are also important elements. Both conventional and magical weapons feature. There are five difficulty levels to choose from, adding replayability value to the single-player game. The graphics are adequate whilst the AI is good, allowing for challenging combat. Atmospheric music and sound effects accompany play.
