"A Game of Dwarves is an interesting take on a simplified RTS exploration game in the same vein as Dungeon Keeper. Large scale management and building games have lost some of their popularity, so it is somewhat surprising that Paradox Interactive have released this title. Come on now, I’m sure more than just myself wondered how hard the Mines of Moria were to carve into stone and now we have a chance to do exactly that. A Game of Dwarves has great moments, fun surprises and represents great value, though some of its joy is marred by buggy controls and a lack of depth."
Another day, another bundle full of games going for a very low price point. At only £3.59 for 12 titles, it’s hard to ignore such an offer. The games on offer cover a large amount of genres, hitting strategy, adventure, shooter and racing games, among others. It should also be noted that these game are not exactly indie titles, several coming from large established studios such as Paradox. But is the pack worth it?
Paradox Interactive’s Game of Dwarves, has received a new content pack. This time, the bearded folk will be looking after pets.
The Dwarves can look after a whole collection of different animals. They’ll need to make sure they have the right food, toys to play with, and, of course, somewhere to sleep.
PCG:A Game of Dwarves is on the management end of the spectrum. You have to look after a small collection of dwarves while hunting for treasure in the depths of the earth. You don’t have direct control over your charges – you just hint at what you’d like them to do by marking out areas for diggers to dig, crafters to build, warriors to fight, researchers to research and workers to grow food.
