Disciples: Sacred Lands

Editors' ReviewDownload.com staffOctober 13, 2013While this role-playing action game may seem antique to some, it still offers plenty of adventure for fans of the series. Disciples puts you at the head of an army of no more than six units. Your soldiers come in only four forms, either fighters, archers, magicians, or clerics. The combat system is simple: your units align in two rows, and take turns fighting. The controls are basic and the gameplay fairly straightforward, yet there are plenty of options to increase your players' strength and skills, which keeps the action interesting. The look and feel of Disciples truly puts you in the medieval realm, yet given the age of the technology, it's still not too shabby despite its low-screen resolution. Overall, old-school mages and warriors might enjoy this challenge, but most will probably want to upgrade to Disciples II.
