Svenska Hemdatornytt
Bakgrundshistorien och spelmiljön är m.a.o. perfekt. Spelets stora brist ligger i användarinterfacet. Grafiken är inte snygg och framför allt så lider spelet av alltför långa inladdningstider.

The Good Old Days
In general, it is a good game that makes you feel in medieval Germany, where you have a country to explore and travel in search of fame, open ended and with diversity enough to last a good time.

Abandonia
You will soon realize that the game really doesn’t have a plot! It doesn’t even have an ending! This is the main reason why I gave it a four. Of course, Germany is very big, so there are many quests, random events and lots of freedom, but it lacks plot. It isn’t as great as it may seem at first that you can go where you want and do what you want.
