Boring, repetitive, NOT FUN! Time Mgt & Strategy are my favorite game types. This game is hard to understand & very repetitive. I really wanted to love it, new TM games are so rare. NOT FUN! Also, the story line is very juvenile, probably for ten year olds. I don't play for the story line, but this was especially silly.
I don't recommend this game.

I've played every version of this series. I was excited to see a new one, then unsure because of the negative reviews. I'm glad I decided to give it a try. I don't think the bad reviewers play Strategy / Time Management games. This is a fun game, the directions show up as you play, I'm not sure what the problem is. The artwork is New Yankee's usual high standard. So far everything works seamlessly. If you like Time Management games, you'll love this one!
I recommend this game!

I really like this game. I've played other games in the series. Somtimes it takes a couple of times thru to figure out a level. I'm on level 9 with no technical problems yet.

I tried to play several times, but there were no dice to roll. I uninstalled, reinstalled & there were dice. However, when I tried to move the pieces they wouldn't move. I closed & reopened several times, and each time either no dice or the pieces wouldn't move. I was in trial mode, glad I didn't pay!

I love the 12 Labors of Hercules series and XV didn't fail me! The only glitch was after I paid for it I had to uninstall & reinstall it to get the activation to work. The actual game is great! The first couple of levels (as with most games) were very simple, but it soon became a fun challenge. I'm anxiously awaiting XVI!
Surprise and adventure await Ragnar on a long journey home!

I don't know why there are so many bad reviews! This is a fun game, similar to it's predecessors in the Northern Tales series. It loaded seamlessly, has good visuals (I don't get the reviews that call it "cartoonish"...it is a cartoon!) I haven't played it all the way thru, but so far it plays well & is fun.

I played thru level 9 & bought it. It's a fun game. TM games are my favorite. I read that one other user had technical probs. I didn't experience them, everything runs smoothly.
I recommend this game!

I've made it through the first 7 levels. So far it is challenging enough to be fun but not really hard. I'm sure it will get harder as I go along. I'm not sure why the other reviewers have probs with it, I'm enjoying it. The only issue is that at first I could not activate it after purchase. However, I trashed it and then reloaded and everything is fine. The graphics are cute & big enough to see (my eyes are getting older...). I'm enjoying it.
I recommend this game!

I played this for about 5 minutes and dumped it. I usually LOVE strategy puzzles. This one definitely not so much. The artwork was dark & gloomy. The figures reminded me of some from 10 years ago. The play wasn't at all intuitive. Not a game for me. I can't address the story line because I didn't play enough of it.
I don't recommend this game.

I've read the other reviews & don't understand what the problems are. It plays well & is challenging on Normal mode. Pretty graphics. I don't read the story lines or listen to the music, so I can't judge them. The game is fun!
I recommend this game!
