Lessaria. A Pleasant Clone
content auto translated from {from}

A clone of Majesty, a fantasy kingdom simulation game with indirect control — Lessaria by Rockbee Team. The first point of praise for Rockbee Team is the release of a game that does not crash and is free of bugs. The second is the pleasant, almost glossy interface, smooth animations, and magical special effects. You can complete the fourteen campaign scenarios in a couple of evenings on an easy difficulty level. The game doesn't have time to get boring — this is the third virtue of the game Lessaria from the Krasnodar group.

In the game Lessaria, there is unit progression, global magic that can be purchased with gold and researched in the Library. The economy is a small addition to the main aspect — resolving local conflicts with hired help. Of course, the campaign heats up towards the end, and the heir prince — not without an advisor, of course — even has to save the kingdom, but it still feels very intimate, like in Dungeon Keeper 2. The game Lessaria will also appeal to fans of Warcraft III. The campaign's narrative or visual style reminds one very remotely of the legendary game. Heroes V was criticized for its similarity to this pillar of the RTS genre. In Lessaria, this style seems organic in my opinion — fantasy, as an alphabet, is hard to surprise the beloved audience with something new.

I don’t know how much Lessaria is better than any of the Majesty games, but as a fan of simulations, I really enjoyed the game from the Krasnodar Rockbee Team. Perhaps the game does not push the genre forward, but it confidently holds its own and is enjoyable — in an era of unstable or extremely raw releases of AAA products, that is a significant achievement.

I would like to look forward to DLC with a new campaign and new capabilities — the kingdom must grow! Personally, I am very happy about this rare guest, the clone of Majesty. I barely played the original parts, so I didn’t have time to miss them. One can also say that the mechanics of Majesty have passed the test of time — they are very engaging!
