I really wanted to like this game more. With that said, you simply cannot go wrong at $6.99. The reasons I simply cannot give it better than 3 stars are its relatively unchallenging AI and the fact that it does not have multiple difficulty levels. Granted, some games end up being tougher than others, overall however it is relatively simple to win.

You are one of 4 lords vying for power in Medieval England. Using footmen, cavalry, crossbowmen, bowmen, and catapult you wage war on computer controlled adversaries. The reward for winning is undisputed rule over all of England. You manage your troops to defend lands you already own or to claim neutral or enemy lands. More land equals more power, and more importantly, more money for your troops.

The game does have quite a lot of replayability. No game ever goes the same. The developers simply failed to deliver a greater challenge. Once you have mastered the strategies of the game it takes a rare set of circumstances to cause you to lose.

It ran flawlessly on my Windows 7 platform for those with concerns in this area.

4.0 out of 5 stars Simple, quick addictive, July 21, 2011
This review is from: Defender of the Crown: Heroes Live Forever [Download] (Software Download)
Its a number one hit from the 80s ported to run in Windows

The difficulty is determined by where you start. Start in the far north corner and after a few games you will be winning all the time Start in the middle of the map, and be prepared to be eliminated

By varying starting locations and lords, there is a considerable variety and levels of difficulty

The simplistic graphics and game engine will not entice hard core gamers, but the strategy and unhurried game play will make it fun.

I hate to admit that I am old enough to have owned this game in its original form on the Commodore Amiga and the Atari ST. This version is true to those versions right down to the funky animation.

Spend the 7 bucks and have some fun

2.0 out of 5 stars Waste of Money, July 31, 2010
= Fun:2.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Defender of the Crown: Heroes Live Forever [Download] (Software Download)
I found the game very repetitive, very quickly. There are several other cheap games for instant download to amuse oneself. If you are interested in this game, Yahoo Games has a web version with limited features available for free. The graphics are simple, which doesn't bother me, but the description led me to believe there was more to the game than there actually is. You play one of several lords trying to conquer England using a Risk-esque battle system (read: the computer figures out if your men die or lose based on stats).
