Conquest of Elysium 3

[Castruccio]

This is a really great turn-based fantasy strategy/roguelike hybrid from the two man team at Illwinter design. I picked it up this week and it's been a lot of fun. It has the randomness and dynamic character of Din's curse with the gameplay of Master of Magic. The game take a couple sessions to learn, but once you figure out what's going on its richness opens up. There are something like 17 unique races to choose from, and I can confirm that all of them feel very different from one another. Here is a let's play:

Yes, great game indeed. Illwinter guys also have their main calibre - Dominions series. TBS fans should check them both out.

I heard it has very poor interface, how true is that?

[Castruccio]

The interface is poor but very usable. You get used to it quickly once you figure it out. The game is on sale on Steam this week, so it's definitely worth picking up if it looks interesting to you.
