Armies of Gielinor

Armies of Gielinor is a FunOrb, turn-based strategy game that was based of off the Runescape world, and it also has a name which is extremely hard to pronounce or type. I am not really sure if this game has any lore or background, if it does I cannot find it. But I don't really think it needs lore, background, or a plot because it makes up for it in pure fun and the ability to play a online strategy game with friends. Also it feels like something that would be found in an arcade. I personally enjoy strategy games, so Armies of Gielinor was a welcome change to the usual shoot-em-up games that seem to dominate these modern times. The game itself is simple, short, and sweet; you need to capture buildings to get points to make armies and defeat your opponent. You start the game with 1 portal and some buildings close at hand, your opponent also gets a portal and some buildings. The objective is to use your troops to capture your opponents portal and buildings so that he cannot spawn anything to fight you. In order to do this you have to use your troops in a strategic manner: this manner can be stealth, trickery, brute force, or actual tactics. Everyone you can spawn has different powers that are explained and that when used in the proper manner can change the tide of battle. Overall, Armies of Gielinor is not a very big game, nor is it very advanced, but it is fun and I would recommend playing with friends for the full experience.
