3.0 out of 5 stars I haven't uninstalled it yet from my machine - that is worth something., September 28, 2009

This review is from: Helldorado [Old Version] (DVD-ROM)

OVERVIEW:
This is an overhead perspective game were you control 1 - 4 characters each that have special abilities and you must make your way across the map (i.e. a town) and accomplish certain goals.
I play a lot of FPS and RTS. This is more of a puzzle game, where you have to figure out a way to get what you want done. On a fun scale I give it a 6 and it is playable, when I need a break I usually load it up and play with it a bit. Sometimes if feels like you're a mouse in a maze and there is only one way out and you need to figure out
In Short:
I do play it... so that says something. It does crash from time to time... I mean straight to desktop. I am playing it on a highend vista 64bit machine.
I don't regret buying it, but if you're interested I might wait for the price to come down or check out the demo first.
Hope this helps

This is a sequel game that assumes that you have played the previous ones. However, with a little patience and some understanding of strategy gaming, it can be a good time.
