Game Review

Lords of the Realm II is a strategy meets resource management computer game developed by Impressions Games and published by Sierra On-Line in 1996. It is the second game in the Lords of the Realm series. It is not so much a sequel as it is a remake that features enhanced graphics and improved gameplay mechanics.

The game is set in medieval times and the storyline is just like the first one. The King has died without an heir, leaving his throne ripe for the taking. Five lords are fighting against each other for control of the throne. You can choose to play as the Baron, the Bishop, the Countess, the Knight, or the Princess and set out on your task to take over the realm. You need to conquer counties and set up your castles to stake your claim. Your citizens do your bidding by farming or fighting and everything in between. The resource management is turn based and the turns are marked by changes in season. Also engage in combat with enemy troops using a variety of unit types, though there are no fantasy folk or mages among their ranks. During combat control a single unit or entire formations at once. You can also skip the battle and let the computer decide the outcome. Claim victory by either capturing the enemy flag or annihilate them all.

Lords of the Realm has a simple interface that is easy to pick up. This game is a good starting point for those new to the genre as there is not as much micromanagement. Though they might want to set the difficulty lower. Challenging and well-balanced, this is a good title for strategy enthusiasts as well.

Golden age of strategy

Set in a well-realised medieval world, Lords of the Realm 2 is a bold take on the strategy genre, combining satisfyingly robust management aspects with suitably exciting real-time combat to create a superbly crafted gaming experience. The game places players in the shoes of one of five nobles vying for the throne following the previous King's death. As is usual with such games, resources must be managed, castles and weapons constructed, and armies gathered. Combat is usually conducted in real-time, although there is the option to have the computer handle things, and sees archers, swordsmen, knights and other assorted troops clashing in an engrossing and thrilling manner. Sieges too are possible, with a great variety of siege engines to choose from and which provide another interesting tactical dilemma, as you must choose the optimum location for their deployment. While nothing here is particularly original, the game is a fine example of the genre, as it pretty much does everything in just the right way. Visuals are generally great, with pleasingly detailed in-game graphics and fine cutscenes which evoke a real sense of the period. Although there is a lack of variation in mission types, this is a minor niggle, and the challenge and depth offered by the game is more than enough to counter this. If you have exhausted the possibilities of Total War, then this is worth a look.

If it ain't broke, why fix it?

A continuation of the classic medieval strategy game Lords of the Realm, this game continues with its epicness and awesomeness from before. Well, when something is so good, there is no need to change it, is there? The game objective is the same as before, the gameplay is also pretty much the same too, with very little, if any change. There is much detail put into the game, and also have to do less than legendary jobs - take care of crops, food, resources and money managment. It's not all war and glory, no sir. The graphics are as breathtaking as they were in the first game with very adequate and appropriate soundtrack. The AI is as competent as ever, the statistics are still overwhelming but nicely shown in non obtrusive little boxes, everything is as we remember from before. Lords of the Realm 1 and 2 are together one big mass of fun, great strategy and fantastic medieval ambient that will take you in completely and make you lose of all track of time and space. Enjoy!
