Product Description

Manufacturer's Description

Dragonshard is a real-time strategy experience based in the mystical world of Eberron, the acclaimed new Dungeons & Dragons realm. Within this wholly imaginative setting lives an inventive gameplay fusion: dramatic RTS play is affected by the risks and rewards of a thrilling RPG-styled underworld.

As players direct troops over the land, they also plunge smaller, hero-led parties below ground to an RPG-modeled world of beasts, battles, and bounty. Experience and items gained in this underworld result in great powers and abilities above ground.

Using magic, weaponry, and skilled maneuvers, players command armies from varying races to control, protect--or destroy--the powerful Heart of Siberys. Obtaining this omnipotent artifact will unleash its full forces, good or evil, upon the entire world.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not bad, just very disappointing., 20 Feb 2006
This game can be summed up in ne word: disappointing. It tries to be different, and to some extent it is, it provides 2 differnt play areas in the worlds above and below, but instead of adding to the strategy experience this detracts from it. The AI is very tame, probably to prevent the player having to switch constantly between the 2 worlds.

The base building around fixed points is a throwback to older RTS games and is not a good move. And the strategy generally falls back on the build as many units, upgrade them and rush.

As for the setting, well what can I say, Eberron is a briliant world, a magic-technology mix with vast potential for adventure and character, shame they didn't manage to capture any of it in the game.

To summarise: A half decent game that offers a slight variation on the norm but fails to deliver its promise. Try Warcraft II for a better fantasy RTS.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant Gaming Fun, 12 Nov 2005
You don't need to be a Dungeons & Dragons "guru" to fall in love with this game. Don't let the genre put you off. Wonderful graphics and superb characters to control. Easy to learn tutorials and almost everything can be controlled by your mouse clicks. Tremendous effects and going up against the enemies and monsters mob-handed is superb and really humerous at times. Great tactical game. I recommend it, especially as you can play Solo, Multiplayer, LAN etc. Very addictive - some very late nights in store to complete "just one more objective" !! :) Best gaming fun I've had in years. I was so impressed I just had to write this review.

3.0 out of 5 stars A good idea, but a dissapointing execution, 17 Nov 2006
Fun:3.0 out of 5 stars 
This game has a lot of good ideas. Having the 2 maps to gather gold and allow for subteranian attacks. Simplifying right down to basics, you build a building which can build and upgrade 1 creature. I also like the idea of having experience, earned by killing enemies, into a pooled resourse to spend.

This should make it a good game, but it feels more like a Beta test. Almost as if there was another stage of production to go through when they released it.

It was a good attempt as a first outing into RTS, but with other titles out there it seems a bit lacking.
