"Hello in the Orient! We have best coffe and jewells, and the most beautifull womens". So the sheik would say.
Since first Anno (1602) i was a huge fan of the series. A few months ago I found myself in front of my old pc, and, not having anything else to do, I played a few hours. So the comparation with Anno 1404 is easy for me t... Read Full Review

A few hours a day, let yourself float on the 15th century oceans with the scent of spice, fish and leather.
As far as I can tell, most of the reviews are positive about the new Anno, a fact the doesn't surprise me, for this really is a gem of a game. Just for clarification, I've played most of the SimCity series, Caesar, Tr... Read Full Review

Somewhere... dada da da... beyond the sea...
This was our first time sailing this series so our point of reference are even further off course. This game seems to us to essentially be a Caesar IV, but a Caesar IV that works. With at least a thousand years differenc... Read Full Review

Ignore Unplayable reviews, read content ones to know if you will like it. I played lots of 1701 and otherstrategy games
First off. My CPU can piss me off all the time with funky Microsoft glitches and freezes. However this game runs fine with extremely high settings. Everything but the highest anti-aliasing which I merely haven't felt ... Read Full Review

Finally a city-building/trading game that is superior.
So, for many years since "SimCity" :) I've been looking for a substitute that works. In my opinion requirements for such a game are: It should look inviting and this game does so. It should be fun to play and this one is... Read Full Review

Hesitant at first. But this game really delivers. It effectively makes you feel in command of a kingdom.
I was hesitant at first. But this game really delivers. It effectively makes you feel in command of a kingdom. You can control pretty much everything you would want to control. The depth is fascinating. After playing ... Read Full Review

Woth playing if you have nothing else to do
Anno Dawn Of Discovery is a quaint little game of just over 4 gig on disc. It isn't much different from other city building games and therers nothing new to expect. It is very similar to Settlers, (but then again it is m... Read Full Review

Best city-building game I've ever played
It might be somewhat relevant to mention that RTS isn't even close to being my favorite genre. That said, Anno1404 was nothing short of amazing, simple fun. Well, not exactly simple. One of the game's most impressive ... Read Full Review

ANOO
It's hard to get excited about a strategy game, especially one that doesn't feature lots of big explosions and giant mecha-robots. It's even harder to pretend to be excited about a strategy game that doesn't have aforeme... Read Full Review

Captivating and charming, with gorgeous visuals to boot, Dawn of Discovery is the best city-builder game in a long time.
Though not without its flaws, Dawn of Discovery is simply the best city-builder game in recent time. (Note: To avoid repeating a vast chunk of the main gamespot review, I shall instead focus on the things that strike ... Read Full Review
