Revival is a turn-based military strategy game in the best traditions of the world-famous game title, Civilization. You will have to explore continents, direct battles on land and sea, build towns, develop science and uphold the economy of his empire!
Great events take place in the world of Revival: grand empires are created; highly developed states collapse in a flash, science degrades and rises again, brutal wars never end, great wealth is created in the millions but can be lost just as easily… The eternal struggle for power is the mark of this world, and only the best ones will be blessed with absolute rule. Unconquerable general or inborn diplomat? Talented economist or crafty politician? You choose your path to eternal glory in the world of Revival.
Rating: 84/100
Aesthetically, the game is a homage to the pre-windows era with its retro in-game graphics, brought into the 21st century with the inclusion of a very cool intro movie. The whole set-up is very easy on the eye, the menus and info windows are all as straightforward and un-complicated as they should be.
Revival is a pretty good game that can become addictive if you generally like turn-based military strategy adventures. Besides the game's resemblance with Civilization, I also found similarities with the Age of Empires series as well as with Heroes of Might and Magic.
Rating: 7/10
From a gameplay perspective, I think Revival is the best thing you'll find on the PocketPC for a turn based strategy game. Once you know how to go about your business the game is fairly easy to navigate, and there's a lot to do.
