Personal review
Official description
In ages long forgotten, Light fought Darkness for control of the world. Finally, the Ancients defeated the evil ruler of the dark forces known as Dark Dragon and cast him into another dimension, though he vowed to return in 1,000 years. As time passed, all memory of Dark Dragon was buried, and the land of Rune enjoyed 10 centuries of peace. Yet, as promised, the dark ruler returned, along with hordes of evil creatures that ravaged the land. As chaos erupted, several strongholds of Good still held out, awaiting a hero who could wield the Powers of Light.

Wicked game. You control Max and his army to defeat the evil Darksol before he awakens Dark Dragon, an evil incarnate sealed by the ancients a millenium ago.
Strategy-RPG where you move the characters around a battle map; the battle action is during a small cut scene. The difference with most strategy-RPGs is that this time you can also move around in towns like in regular RPGs and talk to people, etc.
