I am impressed.Ĭharacters and enemies move well and their appearance is altered based on equipped items. The game is presented in full 3D, with a zoom range that goes from a great maximum to a slightly too limiting minimum zoom free camera panning and rotation and a game world that really does feel alive sometimes: birds fly about, trees and bushes rustle, and clever use of set camera tilt angles and DoF effects make some of the more precipitous areas actually feel high up.

If you’ve not heard of the SpellForce series, it all started nearly 15 years ago with Phenomic’s SpellForce: The Order of Dawn in 2003, which always seemed to me to be essentially an RTS game with a focus on the heroes, with a little bit of RPG wrapping around it. SpellForce 3 continues THQ Nordic’s epic AAA hybrid RTS / RPG fantasy series, this time with Steam newcomer Grimlore Games at the helm.
