    A different take on tower defence, but one that needed more thought before being released on an unsuspecting public. [June 2012, p.110]
    • 58 Metascore
    • 51 Critic Score
    Shoddy graphics and repetition means that this is more of a warm-up act than a stadium filler. [Aug 2007, p.92]

    Extreme patience and a deep seated conviction that life is cruel will dig through to layered and varied experience. [Aug 2009, p.89]

    Surprisingly competent and fun. [Mar 2008, p.76]

    Lots of stars, not much sparkle. Stick with "GalCiv II." [June 2008, p.85]

    Higgledy-bonkers point-and-click nonsense. From hell. [Dec 2007, p.85]

    • 72 Critic Score
    Behind the name, there's solid hack and slash with some decent enemies. But Sacred? Not to anyone, it seems. [Oct 2014, p.94]

    • 57 Metascore
    • 29 Critic Score
    Madly repetitive, flaky and incessantly dull third-person action. Not even Olivia Wilde can save this clumsy movie tie-in.

    So many good ideas, but there're the cheese in a mousetrap of punishing difficulty. Proceed, but with great caution. [June 2007, p.82]

    • 35 Critic Score
    Simply getting things done is a grating process. [Christmas 2011, p.107]

    • 57 Metascore
    • 56 Critic Score
    The live-action stuff is atmospheric and well-shot, but The Bunker is let down by poor pacing and staid design. [Dec 2016, p.92]

    • 57 Metascore
    • 63 Critic Score
    Besides unlocking costumes that don't offer stat bonuses, there's almost zero replay value here. [Aug 2011, p.99]

    Sadly, regular combat again proves Stronghold's downfall. Units require extreme babysitting. [Dec 2006, p.100]

    Another lazy, cynical cash-in made by people who don't care. [Jan 2008, p.81]

    The MoW formula still satisfies, but familiar units and a stale setting leave this swansong feeling superfluous. [June 2012, p.94]

    It's certainly never short of ideas, but inept execution sends Pirates of Black Cove toppling off the gangplank. [Nov 2011, p.134]
