Strategy game - limited variety of action
A straight forward enough casual strategy game requiring a lot of clicking to send out troops and a limited amount of thinking due to limited actions available.
General Premise:
* Send troops out of buildings you own to storm neutral and enemy buildings (watchtowers that zap lasers, houses and castles for troops).
* Multi-select your buildings and from each one half the number of troops will deploy to the building you double click on. So it is a question of throwing more bodies at a building than what is in there already.
* Owning properties gets you money which means that you can use different artifacts on each level (e.g. speed up troops, meteorite blast etc...)
* That is pretty much all there is too it.
Other comments:
* Graphics are fine for the game and reasonable sound effects. Nothing to write home about.
* No story to it really. There is a statue which gains trophies as you go further on in the game, but this is incidental. Once you complete all levels, you unlock a Colonel and General mode which means that the computer plays more cleverly.
* Some levels near the start I found challenging, but then I realized I didn't need to think and just had to go 'clicking mental' to grab land.
* If you do the demo you will get a feel of what the whole game is like. Levels and game play are pretty same-y, with different level artifacts being the main dimension which may change your strategy.
An simple strategy game you can just dip in and out of, to while away some time.

The one I keep going back to
Out of all my games, this one has stayed near the top of the played list. I keep going back to it to play it over again. Fun, challenging. Love it!!! Favourite game.

One of the best games I've played!
Love this game so much. Have spent hours and hours on it - and even started again from scratch recently.
There is definitely plenty of content to keep you going - it is not one of those games that you finish after an hours or so.
It does require some fast clicking at some places, but you could probably do okay if you're a bit slower.
Easy to learn, simple and clear instructions.
Lovely graphics.
Great sense of achievement when you conquer a level, especially a difficult one.
Get this game!

Great Replay Value
On Easy, this game is pretty simple. The first few levels teach you the basics of the game.
After you get your feet wet, you can move on to the 2 harder levels. Although castles and laser towers don't seem to go together, the game moves well, good graphics, sounds are OK, and replay value is great!
After owning this game for several months now, I still have yet to beat all the General setting games, and you can try different methods and strategies. The AI doesn't get faster or cheat to make it harder, the AI strategy gets tougher!

Definitely a keeper!
I love time management and strategy games, but this one is very addictive. I loved the sound effects, and the different levels had great graphics Even though I have played the game through several times, I can always work on improving my time and to get more trophies. The trails of blood are definitely a cool touch!

LandGrabbers Rocks!
I love the time management aspect. I didn't have the patience to beat all levels, but the game play and originality were awesome.
