The Dragoness: Command of the Flame Review (thaodahaka)
Unfair of me I suppose to compare Dragoness with games like HOMM, Total War, Eador and Kings Bounty, but those are the kinds of games I play that also have turn-based tactics and strategy, so I suppose comparison is inevitable. I found the tactics part to be very lacking. No way to properly place units at the beginning, no way to move then shoot, some units that are painfully slow and others that are ridiculously fast. One of the biggest things for me was the lack of hero progression. You can only progress during a mission, but then you have to start from scratch with the next mission. Overall I found this game to be un-engaging and a bit dull. I also personally really dislike the kinds of games that lead you by the nose, where you don't really have free will to go explore where you want. Yes, I may only have 8 hours logged, but if a game can't keep my interest after that long, then it never will.
