The value story

The value story

It has been discounted 85 times in the 13 years tracked here. The median cut across all of them is 75 percent, about 7 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended about 4 weeks ago.

It is pricier than 90 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 99 percent. Kingdom Wars (free, scores 19) outscores it, and so does Age of Reforging: The Freelands ($29.99, scores 22). Both sit among its closest neighbours.

What players say

This DLC is a kind reminder that project managers and game developers should NOT take drugs while designing story for a game.

some campaign missions have bugs that completely halt progress and need you to restart an entire map like halfway thru. I'm not doing that.

SpellForce 2: Demons of the Past is a fantastic conclusion to the long-running series and serves as a proper farewell to the world of Eo. As the final expansion, it ties together the many storylines introduced throughout the franchise, offering closure while still delivering the same addictive mix of RPG and RTS gameplay. What stands out most here is the sheer scale of the campaign: it's long, ambitious, and filled...
