Luckily, Age of Wonders: Planetfall features a full campaign to take you through the basics of each faction and learn the ropes of how to grow your fledgling group expand your territories, customize your troops, and build out your tech trees for both as a military force and for societal advancement. In my time with the demo, I was placed in the tail-end of a high stakes match already in progress - and it was a lot to take in. I was also happy to learn that while multiplayer will still be a thing for both PC and consoles in Age of Wonders when it arrives on August 6th, you'll be able to engage your way - either playing at the same time in the turn based format, or making your moves before stepping away from the game while your opponent is alerted to your turn, and is able to respond at their leisure, which is always a huge boon for those who don't have hours at a time to invest in their planetary domination. Expanding through the hexagon-tiled planets allow you to amass an army, indulge in diplomacy, or set off some real doomsday weaponry. AoW is kind of in-between these two, and Planetfall leans more toward civ-like.For those not familiar, the Age of Wonders series has shed its fantasy skin to get crazy sci-fi in this new iteration, and blends the 4X turn-based strategy genre (explore, expand, exploit, and exterminate) with tense and meaty battles reminiscent of X-COM. And sooner or later we will have Conquest of Elysium 5 (hopefully, this year), if you are more into "classic" TBS. Oh, and if you are into civ-likes (so-called "4x"), you may want to check Humankind (will come out in EA at April, no need to pre-purchase it just now, just take a look at it). But I just don't believe they can possibly fix multiplayer-related issues bugging their games more than 6 years, And TBS without working multiplayer has very limited lifetime. To be absolutely honest, TBS devs do whatever they like to their playerbases. There are\were multiple issues with it, and this is not slightest acceptable after my experience with AoW3. I won't be minding to give it a proper run, but netplay were been ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up since the very release. I don't know if you are OK with a full-price purchase after that.Ĭan't say too much about the game itself. And it was on -67% for complete pack intermittently since September on multiple platforms.
The base game were given away multiple times on EGS and GoG.
