2D art with an overhead view, technology trees, and let s not forget the fog of war. Sacrifice has taken the 3D route as well, and it looks amazing. But this game isn t just a pretty face, the deep gameplay and replay value catapult this title head and shoulders above the crowd. The visuals for Sacrifice are almost beyond words they re so beautiful.
Character design is some of the most interesting to come along in a while.
Instead of going with more traditional character classes for a fantasy setting the game gives players a wide variety of unusual, abstract, yet charming beings to command into battle. What are really amazing are the environments of Sacrifice. While the settings are traditional deserts, snow fields, forests, and such the presentation of these places is second to none. Players can see right up to the vanishing point where objects are out of range of the human eye. As such it s possible to stand on a tall hill and look over a sweeping valley, while being able to see all that is within it as well as what lies on the other side.
