Cavewars is an excellent game of epic proportions. With the number of races you can be the game can really be an excellent challenge. For instance, the warrior class, it kills one third of the population of the city it is about to take over. It may not be the best race to be, however, their weaponry is the most advanced, and it is an easy way for population control, especially, when playing against multiple opponents, so if they ever have the chance to recapture the city, the population has been cut down dramatically, so that their productivity is put under a great deal of stress.

The magic in the game however, is not so easy; however, it can grant you a large amount
of minerals so that the player would be able to develop better weaponry. As far as the minerals go, there are: bronze, iron, gold and mithiril, so that as far as the development goes the best weapons are made out of mithiril, along with the best drills, beasts of burden and armor. Finding a large amount of the mineral would be a great help to the player by giving him/her the resources to crush their opponents.
By giving the game such a developed sense of tactics it really requires the player to think. With the AI growing as the player does, the AI can improvise as the player would, and give instances of high intelligence and very well-detailed and practiced disciplinary movements that force the player to think and work that much harder.
By giving the game such developed senses of boundaries, the game makes for an over-all and quite exceptional game. However, in the long run, it has a great deal of reply value, as the game can change and be given different settings and difficulties so that, the player, if so desired, could make the game harder or easier, depending on their level of tactics, but once the game has been beaten, it shows what the race does, as a whole and how it would rule their kingdom within the mountain that they were sealed into.
With a majority of people looking for a great tactics game and not being able to find one, this is a game that I, personally, would recommend that you download, buy or what have you. Even the demo would give the player a taste of what kind of game they have been missing out on.
