First, I saw something about Siralim on the indie gaming section of Reddit. I downloaded and tried the demo and thoroughly enjoyed it. The controls are simplistic which is nice because I have a newborn and when I hold him I have only one free hand, so a game that has depth and only requires one hand to play is a big freaking plus in my book.

Secondly, the graphics are a great throwback to days gone past and remind me of my childhood, and the simple system controls. It gets confusing nowadays with every game having a plethora of controls and hot-keys and other such nonsense. I guess I combine graphics and controls in one point huh? Well onwards and upwards.

In all seriousness, the game reminds me a little of Heroes of Might and Magic, Pokemon, and even Stronghold and Castles 1&2 with the castle upgrading bit. It's a great mash-up of games, and the amount of depth the creature spawning and creating brings is just phenomenal. Not only that but the dev is very active with updates and posts in the forums for his game as well as on facebook and Reddit. Essentially if you have a problem or question, it's going to be answered.

Play the game folks, it's sheer brilliance. The demo is awesome and the full price for the game is worth it, as this team is not slacking with the updates and dedication they bring.
