This is a super fun little game, with an amazing art style and some pretty good music. I would have only hoped that it had been a bit longer.

A bit confusing at first but challenging and funny!

The game is fun and I really like the artwork, it is really different and creative.

Reminds me a lot of _Age of War_!

Can you explain how the sacrifice mechanic works; I don't get it!

Soo funny! Great idea to use ancient art

Great idea using medieval book illustrations for your game! I liked the art style a lot.
But I didn't get how the theme was used here, I tried to use right click but I didn't saw anything different.
But, overall is a nice game. Good job!

Interesting game using medieval illustrations for that! Amazing! The sacrifice skill is good, but maybe needs more feedback when the player uses it. Another thing that maybe can be improved the gameplay is adding a minimap to see an overview about the situation, like the game Swords and Soldiers. Another thing can be improved is adding attack animation at your units. Overall is an excellent game! Congrats!

This is beautiful. It takes certain level of humility to ask to not be judged on visuals for this, you'd have easily made it into the top 5. Here's hoping an innovativeness vote counts :D

I really like the medieval art style - reminding me of the game Kingdom Come: Deliverance. The monsters look also interesting. Somehow I can't see the archers shooting anything. Anyway, an interesting game which just agrees with my preference for medieval stuff!
