Combat

101 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The story of this game is pretty simple honestly but short and nice, and the combat is very fun and works verywell for a 2005 game, there are so many ways to fight the enemies in this game and each way is truly satisfying.

Believe it or not, I actually fell in love with Lugaru for it's story primarily, aswell as it's music, and it's gorgeous visuals.

This flexibility lends the game a sandbox-like quality within its relatively compact levels, encouraging experimentation and replay.
Difficulty

29 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The thing i love about this version of the game is that it comes with 3 more fan made campaigns which are just as good if not better than the main story. my favourite story wise being the seven tasks campaign, and difficulty wise EASILY the empire campaign
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
8 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The old graphics will always be special to me, especially the soundtrack Grass1.ogg, absolutely heavenly.
