Turn Based Strategy War Game : Domination

When checking out new games I hate having to scour the description page and sometimes the player reviews to see what type of game it is. Its often unclear whether it is a Real Time Strategy or Turn Based Strategy.

Sometimes, it seems the publisher is almost embarrassed to be publishing a Turn Based Strategy, when the fashionable thing to be doing is making Real Time Strategy games.

Occasionally, even when I have gone and bought the game and am looking at the packaging, I am bombarded with how the game features "Full 3d Graphic Engine!" or "Realistic Lighting and Explosions!". Occasionally we might be really lucky and be invited to "Enter a visually impressive 3D heroic fantasy universe!"

You know - all those essential things that us Turn Based Strategy Vets really crave for in our games.

Anyway enough ranting, here's another Turn Based Strategy: Domination.



















Let me summarise simply:
Sequel to Massive Assault. Elegant simplicity. The new units add a lot of strategy to the already deep strategy of Massive Assault, without adding needless complexity.
Oh and Full 3D Graphic Engine, Realistic Lighting and Explosions! In a visually impressive 3D Heroic Sci-Fi Universe. Review at GameSpot


Will's Rating : 4.5/5

Purchase Domination from Amazon


Cheers!
