What makes this one different is definitely how it is tailored to the DS. All the controls are touch screen with little icons so it truly makes it like a mouse navigation experience. Of course the DS’ tiny screen doesn’t help the situation seeing as we’re looking at a 90’s PC iso engine here and you can’t see shit most of the time. This most likely won’t be a problem for most seeing as they’ll never get this far in the game.


Ooo one of two battles you'll ever encounter.
It’s not a hard game to play, it’s just an extremely time consuming game to play that I always associated with number junkies sitting in some back room with the lights out for days at a time, not playing for a couple hours on the subway. On the plus side the graphics are pretty and the sound works fine.
If you like the PC version you’ll love this but if you’re not sure PLEASE try the PC demos first as this one is really for a select few.

• Touch screen controls
  
• Purdy Graphics

• It’s Anno 1701 with very few gameplay changes
