Anno 1404 reviews and comments

I'm kind of positively surprised! After playing Anno 1602 and Anno 1503, I was a bit skeptical of the next Part. Somehow he walked past me as well. However, I now have to realize after 4 Hours Of play That the Game deserves much more Attention! It does not need to hide and for a few Euros in the Sale quite a Recommendation for building strategy and Anno fans. + Graphic + game Mechanics + campaign/Story + Traceability + ship route planner-Fummelous loading onto ships-Market Cart AI The Game is relatively complex, it requires a lot Of Familiarisation (the Campaign supports)-therefore here depending on who is on it Plus point:)

Review of Anno 1404. This Game is a Mix of Building, Economics, Research, Diplomacy and Wars. In the Endless Game, you can set All advanced Modifications of Difficulty levels. So you can decide whether there is Fire, for example, or whether enemy Cosars visit you regularly, gland or often. These Settings allow the Game to set a specific Level Of Difficulty, which is highly recommended. Since the Game is a bit older, you don't need powerful PCS, Lappots, etc. In my short Season I have not noticed Any Buggs, this is not Understandable for all older Games. At the Beginning of the Game, everything still seems quite simple. Providing Citizens with Food and Drink is easy at first, but once you have Nobles or Patricians in the City, you need several Islands and Merchant ships that supply each other. As a result, the Game is becoming more and more branched. The AI is pretty easy to manipulate on the simple Difficulty level. I can't say Anything about the Campaign as I knew the Game from before and it is then superfluous. (It's like a Tutorial)
