RTSguru has posted their review of Fallen Enchantress and has given it an 8 out of 10! “The biggest test of a game for me is if I want to play it more after I’ve played it enough for my review.

I see myself firing it up here and there and playing a couple dozen turns here and there as a break from whatever game I’m currently reviewing or previewing.” Read the full review here. http://www.rtsguru.com/game/460/article/4508/Fallen-Enchantres...

Co-Optimus is the latest to publish a review of Fallen Enchantress, and they rate it a 4 out of 5! "If the engrossing strategy and infinite customization options are not enough to pull you towards Fallen Enchantress, the style alone should make you turn your head. It’s like playing a painting. When zoomed out all the way, the world turns into a cloth map and all the units become pewter pieces. It resembles a tabletop board game, and is a turn based strategy player’s dream. If yo...
