Very average. Was disappointed when i played through it when it came out. Very much populous the beginning, if you ever played that. Not as good as it though and to be fair Populous the beginning was not a critically acclaimed game.

On Summary, worse than an older, average, but very similar, game. From Dust was also very short.

Oh yeah, forgot how much the mouse controls sucked.

Thanks for the info!

This game is pretty fun,its ends up being a little short (i got it cheaper a while a go), But overall its well worth the 10 bucks their asking. I used my xbox control when i played it.

I really enjoyed it, but I remember that it felt very short. Worth $10 IMO, if you can stand Uplay

Don't support Ubisoft. Their UPlay DRM scheme is garbage. Not worth it.

This game is fun, but definitely different. The best part of the game is the last level that lets you play basically a sandbox with all of the powers. It is fun to replay that level over & over because you can shape the map anyway you want. Otherwise the game is only fair at best. This game plays much better with a 360 controller. Don't bother trying to play with a mouse or you will be disappointed.

Fun. Short. Mouse controls annoying but workable. Uplay annoying but at least it didn't prevent me from playing. Worth $10.

For me the best part was that the latter half of the missions made you feel like you actually had choice in how you completed things. There wasn't one and only one way to do it. For example on one level i made a huge rock cauldron and let all the lava drain into it instead of dealing with flowing lava around my villages all the time.

I think it's worth a play, but the game does seem to struggle against itself at times because it's funnest when it's sandboxy, but it likes to order you around too. The ordering around seems to become less frequent as the game progresses, so don't let the first several levels bother you. And the villager path-finding AI will also be frustrating. That said, there's quite a bit of fun to be had once you get used to what it's trying to do. I'm only about half-way through right now, but I'm incented enough to keep playing.
