Pros: good storyline, physics, well formated single player senarios
Cons: takes to much memory (I recommend 128 megs at least)

Physics is just one of the small details that makes this game a good way to delay your term paper. Combine the other features of the game and you will never get that term paper finished. With Total Annihilation: Kingdoms, Cave Dog rivals the age-old supreme champions of real time strategy games, Blizzard. With a fresh look into the real time realm Cave Dog creates a non-stop game that doesn't end with the lack of resources but only when you have the cold dead beating heart of your opponent in your hand. The game includes for races each with different powers and strategies.
Cave Dog must be applauded for its incorporation of physics into video game. When a tree is between an archer and the unwitting peasant, the peasant is able walk away from the incident unharmed as the arrow bounces harmlessly of the tree. Unfortunately after the peasant walked away from the protection of the tree, he met is end. With smart programming choices Total Annihilation: Kingdoms is as realistic as medieval monarchs fighting with fantastic creatures can be.
The game features many different built-in single and multi-player scenarios. The storyline for the single player game creates an atmosphere of ancient legendary battles. The player immerses into this storybook world by actually playing out the events as they happened so long ago. One good feature of the single player game is that it rotates the four different races rather then playing each one as a block set. In the multiplayer world the players are left with the option to create their own epic battles whether it be against computer or person. For those who don't like the game ending after the leader has perished the monarchs can be made expendable. Total Annihilation: Kingdoms is essential part of any real time strategy game collection.
