Game Info

Publisher: Hasbro Interactive

Developer: Cyberlore Studios

Genre(s): Real-Time Strategy, City-Building

Players: 4

ESRB Rating: E (Everyone)

Release Date: March 23, 2001

Summary

A true add-on pack (you must own the original to play it!) to Majesty, a Y2K sleeper which was a unique blend of strategy, role-playing, and city-building games (but considered way too short by critics), Northern Expansion adds 13 new and more difficult quests and an enhanced multiplayer experience. Newbies probably need not apply.

All Game Guide

This add-on blows a crisp northern breath of life into the original game and the snow-capped mountains offer tests of skill, endurance and patience.

Gamers' Temple

Some players may find the new quests a little hard, but serious Majesty fans will enjoy the new quests and game features.

IGN

It's still a very solid game with a great premise and interesting style of play that you just gotta love, but the lack of new friendly units and the slowdown that puts you in slow motion at times is a bit annoying.

Game Over Online

Isn't the greatest expansion pack around. However, it only costs $20, and although it only has 12 quests, those quests should give you 50 hours or more of gameplay.

GameSpot

Costs about half the price of a new game and significantly extends the longevity of the original.

Game Revolution

The extra missions would have really helped flesh out the original. But it's not really worth a second price of admission. Wait for this one to hit the bargain bin, or if you don't have the original, wait for the inevitable "bundle."
