Yea I remember it. It had dinosaurs right? How was it strategeryious or strategiumial or strategical? I don't think I've ever played a strategy/Adventure. Oh, Project Nomands is kind of like that..kind of....

It was really, really stupid. You had to find gold and give it to certain races so that they would fight the baddies, which moved in real time, and you had to find objects and give them to other races so that they would build fortresses ... and all of that would be nice, if it was an adventure game. What a missed opportunity.

I read the review on JA+ and it got only a C+ rating, but I was still interested in getting it. The manual does say that it is an "adventure/strategy" game. Too bad you didn't like it. :-*

Remember the Dragon Lore games? Fantastic graphics but horrible gameplay. ragon Lore 2 had a horrible, unforgivable maze towards the beginning of the game and Dragon Lore 1 had very little gameplay, but oh those graphics were years ahead of their time and still look great even today.

I remember Dragon Lore in the stores. I looked at the back of the box and my eyes fell out and got stuck in the game rack. THe graphics looked miraculous. I didn't buy the game when it came out because my system couldn't handle it and I didn't have any money. But I just recently found Dragon Lore at a computer show for a buck along with Journeyman 2. I was happy.
