Description
SpellForce is a RTS\RPG hybrid game similar to
Battle Realms. The storyline is the usual "the fate of the world is in your hands". Unlike Battle Realms, SpellForce gives more focus on the hero. In fact, the player can go into 3rd person view (only for the hero) and play it like hack and slash game.
The player can still play it like any other RTS game though. SpellForce features 6 playable races and a highly detailed game engine.
Alternate Titles
- "咒语力量：秩序黎明" -- Chinese spelling (simplified)
- "SpellForce: Zakon Switu" -- Polish title

Trivia
Continuing with Spanish problems, the game was featured as the October 2005 covermount of Mega Score, the longest running Portuguese video gaming mag, but the discs (duplicated in Zaragoza, Spain) kept the SecuROM copy protection measures, which (obviously) recognized the CDs as copies, and refused to install.
To make up for that, the magazine offered the game again (with a non-faulty batch) in the following month, and offered to replace the faulty discs for casual magazine buyers.
