Product Description

Battle for Troy allows players to quickly engage in cunning attacks and full-scale battles without the rote memorization and hours of trial-and-error typically found in real-time strategy games. Paris, King of Troy, has stolen the heart and soul of Helen, Queen of Sparta. Feel the wrath and fury of a king betrayed as Menelaus rages to return his queen. Now two great legions stand poised on the brink of war. May the Gods be with you as you choose sides in an alliance that will soon drown the city of Troy in a sea of blood, all for the love of a woman. Defend your city and your stolen queen against the bloodthirsty onslaught of the raging Greeks using nine different unit types, and immerse yourself in historic action with two extensive campaigns, each with eight challenging missions.

This review is from: BATTLE FOR TROY (CD-ROM)

This game was mediocre. Aside from having an insanely bizarre error of flipping the computer screen 90 degrees (easily fixed), the units on the field look cartoonish... like those kids toys in which there's no torso, only oversized head, hands, and feet. That's exactly how the units look. The game functions are overly simplified of "get gold, build units, kill enemy" with absolutely no impressive fighting effects or anything even remotely impressive in appearance. Outdated graphics cannot be blamed for this--it is simply poor, visibly

Historical accuracy aside, the game seems quite shallow of just moving from mission to mission with your troops mindlessly going around killing enemies at your control. Terrible game

This Troy game looks great, I hope you can fight as Archilles, Hector, Paris or Menelaus. Even maybe someone else like Helen! That'd be kinda fun. Anyways it might be those games where you see it and buy it, or pass it without a glance.
