Dawn of Discovery
SCORE: 85
I ran across Dawn of Discovery at a gaming store. This Wii game looked interesting, and I could not remember ever hearing about it before. So I purchased it. I am so glad that I did. This is one fantastic game families will enjoy.
Dawn of Discovery is a civilization building game. Families can play in either the sandbox mode where they can build up their civilization. Or they can play through the Story Mode. The Story Mode is where Dawn of Discovery teaches families how to play the game.
Families will need to balance multiple things in Dawn of Discovery. Villagers are needed for taxes. Food is needed for the villagers. Queries and Lumberjack huts are needed to build things. It can take some time to keep things flowing properly. Have too many governmental building and your gold coins dwindle. Not enough food, or if the taxes are too high the villagers/settlers will leave. This part fascinated me personally.
Villagers have certain needs like milk, and a chapel. I love the inclusion of the church in Dawn of Discovery. The Story Mode has the player providing food, clothing, medicine, and more for the citizens of the kingdom. I love the humanitarian aspects to this Wii game.
The voice acting in Dawn of Discovery is amazing. The graphics are bright and colorful. There can be violent content in certain levels of Dawn of Discovery. Players can build barracks so they have troops to defend their territory. Fires can also burn down houses.
Two
family members can enjoy Dawn of Discovery. I had a lot of fun playing
Dawn of Discovery. In fact time got away from me while I completed
missions and built up my islands.
