SpellForce - Heroes & Magic

I am a fan of the spellforce series in general. This game has a lot of the components of a good mobile game, but in the end, it’s just way too easy to be interesting. This is a game that would really benefit from allowing the player to procedurally generate a map and adjust difficulty but instead the game has the player play a bunch of pre-generated maps. If you get a few crossbow men, pretty much all of the fights on the map are completely trivial. Combat is really not challenging or interesting at all. I played through five or six of these maps, hoping it would get more challenging and it never did. So I just uninstalled.

Overall a fun strategy rpg. I have encountered a bug where moving workers around on the city page caused a worker to disappear if you didn’t drop it perfectly on the square. I found no way to submit this bug from the app. Fix the bugs, create a feedback system in the game itself.

Range units seem to be grossly overpowered. There seems to be no limits to ranged combat. It makes ranged units all you need. I’ve yet to make it into range with any of my melee units to even make an attack since all my ranged units nuke everything before they even have a chance to retaliate. I feel like the game could be good but the combats are so pointless since you just nuke everything before things even get interesting ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I like this game. I want to love this game, ... but there’s still quite a few bugs, and what looks like content that hasn’t been developed yet. I hope that the publisher continues to support this title and finishes it, because it could be really good.

I like what the game is trying to do, but it seems awkward to accomplish anything. The first 15 minutes are especially confusing, as you struggle to figure out even basic things. The tutorial really doesn’t even get you to a basic level of understanding. I don’t love moving units between armies and garrisons, and the combat and game pacing is a little slow for my liking. Three stars because I absolutely give benefit of the doubt that the game could be better on a larger display (I’m on iPhone XR) or if I spent more time on it (~2 hours total).

I like the game. It’s like Warcraft 3 but turn based, which allows for more strategic maneuver and less tension. It’s perfect for killing some time on the bus. I see the game hasn’t been updated for a few months, I hope my wish still catches some attention from the dev team. In the battle view, when I use two fingers to zoom in, the screen center shifts to another point. For example when I zoom in with two fingers on an archer, the archer won’t be at the center of the zoomed view. I’ll have to scroll a bit to find where I was. Can you help with it? I’m using iPad mini 5 with the most recent iPadOS.

I wish the 1 star review didn’t deter people away, because this is an amazing game to play. Reminds me a bit of might and magic.

Game was performing great until I got to the 3rd story zone. If at any point you complete beat one of the computer players, the game will not proceed through the next turn cycle. Gets stuck on the neutral player or the other computer player. Please fix!!!!!!!!!!
