Don't give up so easily. You only have to 'watch' your troops fight on auto-combat, if you direct each move yourself and plan each action logically, it's rather like a game of chess and just as challenging.
Playing King's Bounty - The Legend, becomes a lot more fun as the game progresses. The more you get into it the more you will enjoy it.
It's a different idea over the normal game where you are the character that hacks and slashes your way thru the dungeons.
Here you 'command' your troops without your own character actually on screen in the fight. That's probably why you turned off of the game so fast.
At first you may feel you don't have the control that you have in other dungeon crawls but as you progress and get in the swing of things. It soon becomes a great game that has lots of playhours.
Great graphics, terrific humor and lots of replayability. I rate it five happy faces
Give it another whirl - you'll not be sorry.
