Dealbot never sleeps.
Dealbot is the sandman
I was about to buy this game the other day, perfect timing.
I got this game a while back in a humble bundle with I think age of wonders 2, magicka 2, Europa something 4.
So, what's it like?
Interesting I guess. Nice graphics and seems pretty unique. If I had to describe it I guess it’s a strategy hexagon grid turn based tactical RPG game?
So like a fantasy RPG version of Civilization?
Activates via steam and free trading cards, thanks op
Good game?
Yep pretty good as a turn based strategy. Like a mix between Civilization and the Total War series in a fantasy setting. I enjoyed it.
Just a heads up, I've been caught out once before.
The redemption deadline is May 16, 2019 at 10 a.m. Pacific time
Apparently I already own this aha. Have a free key somebody: 83WLF-HLI7L-CJBEC
Aww, already been used. Thanks though :)
Wouldn't the cost be the monthly subscription fee ? So it's not really free?
No, this isn't part of humble monthly, this is just a free steam key.
Ah gotcha when you subscribe to the humble bumble newsletter! Thank U!!!!
Is this like Age of Empires?
Possibly, but also possibly not - mentions it’s a turn based strategy. I’ve never played a turned based strategy (only RTS) so cannot comment on what the gameplay is like.
I’m in the same boat of not playing many strategy games so I could be wrong with terminology but my best comparison would be that AoE is a RTS game while Age of Wonders is a 4X game.
Same genre and war focused but definitely not the same
it's more like Heroes of M&M if you ever played that before.
Not at all.
It's a fantasy 4X, and the best of the lot. But not as good as AoW2.
Just got it. Will see how it's like.
Thankyou
So I've never used steam before. I've created an account and activated the product key. What do I do now in order to play the game?
once you activate a product in steam. it should appear on the left bar in your library page for you to download and launch
Once you have the client installed just click on 'Library'. All your games will show up there.
DM me if you wanna try a game with a complete beginner i.e me haha lol I will send you my steam profile in private as I don't think it is allowed to publicly advertise it.
Already own it and all its expansions, but strangely it allows me to redeem the key still. Normally it will say you already own the game.
Perhaps your copy came from a bundle and it is associated with the ID for that bundle? I think I had the same with one of the Goocublets games.
Wow, nice!
Thanks OP
Literally made a steam account just to get this…
Not long before you have hundreds of games.. :P
Dealbot, it’s sleep time now. 😌
