WiiWare: Swords and Soldiers

Posted by Derek Yu Tue, 19 May 2009 08:46:00 GMT


Swords and Soldiers, the 2d side-scrolling RTS from the creators of de Blob, is now available in Europe and Australia via WiiWare (1000 points), with a U.S. release forthcoming (no date set). In the game you can pick from one of three factions – the Vikings, the Chinese, and the Aztecs – which each have their own unique units, spells, and abilities. The game features a singleplayer mode and an offline multiplayer mode.

I’m not anywhere near a Wii, a Europe, or an Australia, so I can’t tell you how it is, but Edge gave it a favorable review. When comes out here, though, you can bet I’ll be playing as the Chinese! “HERROW!”

    I played it at an exposition like 5 days ago and really liked it. Easy to pick up but enough strategy in it, also fun visuals and teams. Sort of short matches I think tho, but it’s perfect to kick some friend’s ass. Heard the singleplayer is good too.

    Looks quite enjoyable! At a first glance it didn’t seem that great, but looks deeper than expected.
