Majesty 2 puts you on the throne of a fantasy kingdom, managing it as you see fit. You start with a castle – a construction yard of sorts – which at a low level allows you to build recruitment structures, a marketplace for income and guard posts for defense. You'll get a small contingent of guards to protect your castle initially from the wolves and giant rats that threaten your town in the early missions, but it's worth building the warrior and ranger's guild as soon as you can to start recruiting hardier units.

The Strategy Gamer looks at how several games break the God-game mold that seems to plague the genre.
"March, my people, into battle. Even though you are 500 miles away, and radios have not yet been invented, instantly obey my commands. It’s good to be the king.
Strategy games often put the player in the stated position of king or emperor, allowing them to guide a nation in totalitarian fashion. It is an odd paradox that while so many games put you in a position of supreme leader, so few model it with any degree of authenticity."
"GamersGate are currently holding offers of 40% off on Mass Effect 2"
"Last but definitely not least is the ‘Nordic week’ sale that’s currently on at GamersGate. Various games from the Nordic Games catalogue are up for sale including games such as Painkiller and even the Gothic franchise"
