A unique mix of strategy and RPG mechanics that miraculously loses very few of either.

One of the most polished strategy games of the year! A fun mix of RTS and RPG that will keep you coming back for more.

While being a decent game, SpellForce 3 sadly fails in being more than the sum of its part, and offers nothing truly memorable.

RTS-RPG hybrid SpellForce 3 tries hard, but some key issues can make it hard to love or even like.

Spellforce 3's mix of RTS and RPG can be interesting for a good amount of players but can also be not enough for the most devoted RTS and RPG's players. The narrative doesn't do anything special but maintains a good rhytm and do it's best.

SpellForce 3 is a really good game that expands on the brand’s gameplay mechanics, mixes RTS and RPG in a smooth way and enchants with some absolutely superb graphics. There is space for improvement but fans of more oldschool games should be more than happy.

The RPG side of SpellForce 3 works better than the RTS one. Some important bugs and a bunch of balance problems prevent the game from reaching a higher score.

The old school RTS continues to gather strength, with help from some friends in high level places.

SpellForce 3 is the return of a good semi-classic, with its mixed nature made by RPG and RTS. The first one works well, but the second one is not so good.

SpellForce 3 is a game that, when pulled apart, doesn't always come out looking great, but that I've still really enjoyed.

SpellForce 3 is a pretty fantastic game, but it's also pretty large and potentially overwhelming. That's not to say it doesn't create an excellent challenge, but there is quite a bit to pick up and run with for people new to the RTS genre. I feel that given some time, most can become quite adept and will thoroughly enjoy the game. And at the least, the game has some beautiful graphics to admire while you're slaughtering some crazy beast or an enemy army.

Spellforce 3 is a hybrid title, with two very different mechanics that have been merged and whose final result looks really nice. The best part is the RPG that manages to maintain an original imprint thanks to a valid exploration system.

Two great game genres that play great together, Spellforce 3 isn't anything special in any one area but the combination of the elements adds enough that it should keep players coming back for a long time.

If Command and Conquer and Baldur's Gate had a child... it may well have come out as Spellforce 3. Take your character's through a grand story while developing military outposts along the way.

SpellForce 3 offers a unique and well balanced mixture of both RPG and RTS elements. With good visuals and sounds, it is also satisfying to see and hear. It is possible to see a couple of bugs from time to time but the game is getting constant updates and it is getting better and better each day. Those who love RPG and RTS games should absolutely try this game. However, if you are too concerned about little details and bugs, you might want to wait a little bit more. But recommend playing this game when you have the chance.

SpellForce 3 is a good sequel, even though it streamlines some elements from the previous games. If you're in a mood to play a RPG/RTS hybrid, SpellForce 3 is not a bad choice.

SpellForce 3 competently blends RPG and RTS games into a generally enjoyable package, but there's not enough creative force to create a lasting spell.

SpellForce 3, despite not being very deep, makes an excellent fusion of RPG and RTS, becoming one of the best PC games of the year. googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-ldb4'); });

SpellForce 3 isn't a bad game, it can even be pretty good at parts.
