    With the time involved in advancing and all the perks that comes with, coupled with competitive tournament play, this game should keep you entertained for a good long time.

    Although Legacy Online does adequately create an experience that can survive offline while being challenging and rewarding when online, the basis for the game isn’t going to appeal to a broad audience.

    The whole feel of the game is relaxed and easy-going. If you’re at wit’s end you can always ask someone online for help. I found the online community friendly and equally laid back.

    Balanced well for casual players who don't want to make large time commitments to the game, yet it's this same balance that ultimately keeps the game from being truly compelling at this point in time.

    The connection to other players is too abstract to make the game anything more than a vaguely interesting and simple business simulation. [Oct 2003, p.92]

    The dearth of vital economic information, lack of a true economy, and repetitiveness make this a tedious exercise at best. [Oct 2003, p.119]

    This game is awesome. I fully reccomend it. You begin with $100,000,000 (100 million dollars) to build an empire on a planet of your choice. This game is awesome. I fully reccomend it. You begin with $100,000,000 (100 million dollars) to build an empire on a planet of your choice. You will find a nice tutorial waiting for you. It will suggest different things depending on the planet's status. Afterwords, you should talk to players, this will help you greatly, as I did not in Aries, an old beta planet. I didn't know many of the little things that could make you big money. I almost ran bankrupt many times, so I do suggest that you talk to players and ask them for major or minor tips and any questions you may have. Play continues as you research itens to raise desirability/efficiency of your stores/residential, same for quality in industry. I reccomend Chipango and the city Koriyama as a good starting point. Although any place anywhere is good.… Full Review »
