Its evident SpellForce is a polished game with great graphics, solid sound and enjoyable gameplay. Combat is definitely the focus in the game, but if you don't have a fairly high spec system, you will suffer large drops in the frame rate, with things really grinding in larger skirmishes. Unfortunately there is the constant nagging feeling that we've seen it all before. SpellForce looks set to be an enjoyable fantasy adventure, without really changing an already saturated genre.

SpellForce multiplayer is challenging. With so many races and combinations of fighters, it can lead to some long and rewarding battles. While the RPG element has only a minimal role to play in MP, it is still present and can make a difference.

SpellForce was a real treat to play, a full and thorough single-player storyline that I was sorry to see end. The multiplayer, while not as immersive to me, is definitely worth the time.
