The other day I was browsing around the web as I do, when I came across an image of an old windows game I used to play some time ago (1994\/1995) – it was then that I once again found out the name of it, that being “Slay<\/a>” by Sean O’Connor. Happy that I had found this game again, I bought two copies of it so I could play the multiplayer option via lan, though it does have the option to join and create hosted public games.<\/p>\n

Can’t beat classic games that you had hours of fun playing with as a kid! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

Slay is a simple to learn game of strategy and cunning set in medieval times. The island is divided up between the six players, and you must try to capture your enemies’ land and link up your own territories to create larger and stronger ones. You begin capturing land by attacking with your peasants. Once your territories become richer you can combine peasants to make stronger and stronger people (Spearmen, Knights and then Barons) who can kill weaker enemy troops, or knock down their castles. Just be careful that you don’t create too many expensive men or the territory will go bankrupt!<\/p>\n

The latest version of Slay for Windows allows you to design your own islands and to play network games. There is also a built-in lobby system to find opponents on the Internet.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
