Dominions 2 is the best turn-based strategy game I’ve played since the days of Master of Magic for DOS.
I know that a lot of folks will be turned off by the dated graphics and potentially high learning curve, but it’s really worth it to give these games a shot. It’s a highly rewarding game to play once you figure out the mechanics of the game.
Dominions 3 will feature increased races, units, spells, better graphics, and more refined gameplay than Dominions 2. Looks great! I can’t wait to play it.

Dominions 2 was a truly fantastic game, and I expect Dominions 3 to only get better. But $55? That is just getting ridiculus.

I know the graphics suck, but trust me, this game is damn fun. Dominions 2 is one of my most played games. The level of detail present without bogging the player down in micromanagement is really awesome. Dom2 was one of those games that I keep coming back to and playing after I got bored of the latest SHIT coming out.
This game just got pre-ordered, its expensive — which sucks — but I’ll get my money out of it.
