Elven Legacy kommt recht blutig daher, ist jedoch immer auf wunderschöne Umgebungsgestaltung bedacht. Jetzt muss nur noch der Spielspaß stimmen, damit das Spiel zu einem würdigen Fantasy-Wars-Nachfolger erkoren werden kann....

Elven Legacy ist ein ordentliches Rundenstrategiespiel im Fantasy-Setting. Gute Bedienbarkeit, ordentliches Kampfsystem und Armeemanagement, eine nicht-lineare Kampagne und eine gelungene Vertonung sind die Stärken, simple KI, durchsichtige Story...
