Game Vortex reviews Great War Nations: The Spartans

Ricky Tucker reports:

''Generally speaking, Great War Nations: The Spartans looks and sounds really good. Units are brightly colored and feature a number of little standout details like shield symbols. This level of detail really plays into the game's strongest suit, the ability to edit which items each of your units march into the battlefield with. The animation is smooth; units react rather well to their surroundings and battles tend to look pretty good. Except for the rare instances where there are large numbers of units on screen at once, the framerate is solid.

Music has a nice deep, war time tone to it that really helps to convey the mood the game is trying to produce. This blends well with the other battlefield sounds, which actually make some battles feel a little more vicious that they probably are. The only item that is likely to annoy anyone is the voicework. While not horrible, most of the voicework is a bit over-the-top in some areas. It isn't enough to ruin the presentation, though it will cause you to wince once or twice.'' (Great War Nations: The Spartans, PC) 65/100
