A Fantastic Break From the Usual
This gem borrows enough to have familiar controls, yet is different enough to get you addicted and playing until the wee hours.
The animations in this game stand out as the jewel in this crown; torture scenes utilizing Michael Jackson's dance moves bring hilarity, while traps launch hapless victims around like ragdolls.
The only issues I had have already been mentioned: slow gameplay in-between missions, and SLOOOOOOOOOWWWW training of your minions.
Pick this up if you're a fan of strategy games and want something new.
