Game Description Remake of the Cinemaware Classic The Middle Ages: a time of dashing knights on horseback, beautiful damsels in distress, and perilous quests for honor and glory! More Reviews. There is also the option of raiding an enemy castle, or holding a tournament.
You can buy as many army reinforcements as your gold allows, and you gain more gold as you conquer more land. Moving the campaign army to a province will conquer it if it is not already owned by someone.
However, if there is an enemy campaign army in that province a battle will start. The battles are pretty simple and they are depicted by simple numbers on screen the only really bad part of the game - you never see, or command a battle.
You just give orders, like "ferocious attack" or "wild retreat" and simply see what happens. Most of the time the one with the biggest army wins and stays in the territory.
Battles on provinces with castles are somewhat different. At the start of the battle you must batter down the walls with your catapult you must have at least 1 catapult in your army in order to attack castles , but after that part the battle is the same as the others whether or not you destroyed the walls. Raiding a castle is the "arcade" part of the game.
You choose a castle to raid, and immediately the action is transferred inside the castle, where you and two of your men are fighting in the castle's courtyard and the inner hall against enemies. The only thing you have to do is to point at an enemy with the mouse pointer and right-click as fast as you can.
If you win against your enemies you will get some more gold for that game turn. It must be noted that enemies never raid your home castle. But thieves can decrease your gold reserves - this is one of the random things that can happen in any turn. More on those later. Lastly, there are 2 random things that can happen in any turn. The thieves are one, and the other is the abduction of a lady.
If that happens you get to choose if you will try to rescue her. The rescuing is exactly the same as going for a raid. The only difference is that you do not gain gold at the end, if you win, but instead you gain a bride The game also rewards you with a cinematic scene where you see your bride and your character in a somewhat romantic scene in front of a fireplace. About the game's graphics I will not say much, since you can pretty much see it from the screenshots. The only thing I will say is that they are no rival to the Amiga version's.
I know the game sounds pretty simple, but I assure you that it is fun to play. After a short introduction by Robin of Locksley himself, you start the game with a single castle and 10 soldiers at your command. From there, you have to build your army, take control of additional territories and fight the three Norman lords - and sometimes your Saxon friends as well.
You find yourself back in the time of Robin Hood and are one of 4 landlords trying to unite the country. Defender of the Crown is surely a classical Strategy-Game. Challenging and involving. It doesn't only concentrate on the strategical aspect, but also on some action, like fencing or jousting.
Hold tournaments, where you can fight for a piece of land or simply invade it. Also some diplomatical aspects in it. Overall still one of my favorite games of this genre. This game set standards and it's style dominated the strategy-genre for many years, take a look at games like Kingmaker for example, though that one lacks the action-aspects.
The atmosphere and historical background of this game remained unbeaten for a long time. This is the original release of the game - it's in CGA An EGA version of this game was released a year later and the better graphics surely add to the gameplay.
But that's pretty much it. Please note that the sound of either version belongs to the VERY annoying sort.
