It's got promise...but game mechanics are REALLY hard to figure out and there's no real deep-dive into how anything works. Resources are EVERYTHING in game, but you can waste 1000s of soldiers to occupy a square on the map (Mysterious Spring or a Hobbit Camp, for example) only to find the game won't let you occupy after defeating it, and no one can tell me why. It took 3 armies and 6 battles to win, army depleted and nothing to show. Plus you start completely over each new season. No thank you!
