SpellForce - Platinum Edition

SpellForce - Platinum Edition - the world is divided by the ocean into islands connected by portals of an ancient clan of magicians. Obsidians allow you to summon fallen warriors devoid of will, and the main character is just such a summoned servant. As the campaign progresses, the hero can choose which troops to develop and which islands to linger on. Troops and heroes are developed separately, and the composition of the squad is selected in advance for major battles. He was lucky: the magician turned out to be a man of honor and returned the warrior’s soul and freedom. In response, he asks to save the world from eternal winter and stop the powerful dragon, because of which it all began. Winter is coming according to the plot, and this is felt in the locations themselves: snow, ice and rare settlements. The mixture of genres here is honest: squads walk around the world in real time, and battles take place with elements of a role-playing system. Bases are built, troops are gathered, and the hero grows in levels along with the team. Both traders and rulers give tasks, and some of the tasks affect relations between peoples. Some maps open only after certain story events, so it is better to follow the order of passage. The Platinum Edition includes both the original game and an expansion with new lands and chapters. The plot of the add-on continues the main line, so it is better to go through them in order. The portal between the islands opens gradually, so the route develops by itself. In addition to story missions, there are free maps where you can upgrade your units without haste. For everyone who loves role-playing strategies and doesn’t mind understanding the structure of the world through dialogues and tasks.
