Video Game Reviews of 1701 A.D.
Customer Review: Addicting!
Summary: 4 Stars
1701 A. D. is a game to challenge your ability to plan ahead. You must satisfy your citizen's needs in order to advance your society, and they are many! I find it difficult to do that and not run out of money. The game is truly addictive and you will find yourself playing hours before you know it. Customer Review: Fun Stuff
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this product after having 1602 for so long. It's a great game and I am pleased that I purchased it.Customer Review: Same Game, Better Graphics
Summary: 5 Stars
This game is not very much changed from the previous versions of the game. It does have better graphics. If you like city building games, it is worth having in your library of games.Customer Review: Now this is a game
Summary: 5 Stars
Not overly complicated, but complex *enough*, with updated graphics. Zoom out for a wide-view, or zoom in to count the freckles on a woman in the market; you can see highly-detailed activities everywhere. Also, by far the best tornadic simulation in a game I've ever seen. Lots to do, lots to explore, with pirates to fight or avoid and other colonists with whom to trade, trick, or fight... or even ignore.Customer Review: Bug Free and Not for Casual Gamers
Summary: 4 Stars
After about 25 hours of playing:
Bugs/Stability 10 (out of 10): This game has been perfectly stable for me. It has never crashed or slowed down or had any glitch of any kind. My computer barely meets the minimum requirements and my microprocessor is only an Athlon 3000, which is not quite the minimum requirement of Athlon 3200. It was very easy to install.
Challenge 8: I'm a very experienced gamer and this game has been quite difficult to master, though easy to learn, thanks, in part to a nice tutorial. I think it's too difficult to master (though easy to learn) for casual gamers.
Graphics 7: This game has beautiful graphics, even on my $800, 2 1/2 year old computer, when zoomed in, but I find myself zoomed out most of the time.
Gameplay 9: This game is simply fun to play and try to master. With each game, you learn and do a little better next game. I have never played a city-builder or economic game before (unless you count games like Civilization or Age of Empires for instance) and I've had so much fun so far, I plan to play more of them.
Replayability 8: This game is fun to play over as long as you can keep seeing improvements that you can make to your gameplay.
