We tell you who should skip it, too.
Play it if you…
Good fit- Fantasy strategy players who want both a campaign and online battles
- Players who enjoy managing heroes, spells, armies, and research in one game
- Map-making enthusiasts who want random generation and editing tools
Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking a short standalone experience may find the 25-mission campaign too structured and substantial
- Players who dislike managing multiple factions, heroes, technologies, and army commands may hit a wall during battles
- Players looking for a puzzle, role-playing, or turn-based strategy game rather than real-time fantasy strategy
Our take on Kohan II: Kings of War
Players may bounce off the army-command system before the first major battle, particularly if managing heroes, warriors, technologies, and faction forces feels like too much to track at once. The campaign’s 25 missions also set a substantial commitment for those seeking brief sessions.
