 Many lies about this game. Better than a lot of people claim. March 11, 2008
4 out of 7 found this review helpful
First of all, let me be adamant that THERE IS NO "CONVERT OR KILL" IN THE GAME. Sorry for the caps, but it's necessary to be firm against the lies being spread about this game. From the game manual, to the game itself, to the game and company websites, it is made very, very clear that "convert or kill" is NOT the goal of the game. The goal of the game is to save people from the Antichrist. In fact, here's is a direct quote from the manual: "YOUR GOAL: Save as many people from the clutches of the Antichrist as possible. Your purpose is absolutely NOT to wipe out the enemy forces." The manual does briefly touch on very rare circumstances where you might be forced to fight defensively and kill or be killed, but your best (and often your only) offense and defense is spiritual warfare, i.e. using non-combatant singers and recruiters to turn units to your side (or at least neutral).
Furthermore, the game is neither racist nor sexist. While the units all look alike, this is simply for the sake of convenience and to avoid confusion. Any "Muslim names" people have complained about are a non-issue as there are many, many other types of names. Some have complained that female units can't become builders and this makes the game sexist, but they ignore the fact that only female units can become the most powerful units in the game.
As far as the game itself, it makes you plan moves and think out strategies instead of massing soldiers and weaponry to slaughter your enemies. It's very fun when you get the hang of it (and realize that unlike traditional gaming, brute force isn't the best option and can often be the worst).
Left Behind Games has been very faithful to players and has made sure to issue several patches to address technical and gameplay concerns. The game as it is now with all patches installed is very stable and easily playable.
The game's appearance is above average with top-notch recreations of New York City streets right down to street signs (which are readable!), mailboxes and banks of payphones. The advertising in the game is minimal and hardly noticeable when you are concentrating on playing.
In short, "Eternal Forces" is a very good offering from a brand new company and a brand new genre.
 The game that should be Left Behind. Waste of money! December 25, 2007
4 out of 6 found this review helpful
I just recieved this game for Christmas and was really excited to get it. That was untill I played it! The movies put out by this series are impressive the game is a total waste of money. In the first part of the game you are told to: "Beware of the evil musicians, their screaming guitars will take your soul away!" And you are literally killed by these evil rockstar musicians and kicked out of the game. Your only defense is to pray really hard, or kick someone (Not much of attack when people are coming at you with weapons!) Oh, and by the way there are literally dotted lines drawn in most of he city so that you can not advance beyond those points until it lets you! And to walk you have to keep clicking on the walk button and then move your mouse to where you want to go. Your character keeps saying stupid things like: "I'll go!" or "That's a good idea!" (He says this every time you make him move!) Graphics are basic and when you push on your letter buttons (On the keyboard) they make sounds but your character does nothing. P.S. Most Christians do not believe that rock music will take your soul away! I kept the free Left Behind Book and I threw the game away! I don't know who made this game, but they should deffinately look into a new field of work!
 A good Christian Game December 12, 2007

This game is not best, most up-to-date game in the world. I will acknowledge that. It is, however a good quality game for Christians to play as an alternative to D&D or other role playing games with non-Christian themes. Yes, the graphics are old, but the theme of the game really makes up for it. Christians should buy the game. We should be supporting our Christian video game options. If we don't then there is no incentive to produce others for the manufacturers. Other items to try are Dance Praise revolution and Odyssey products.
Left Behind.......In More Ways Than One October 2, 2007
6 out of 7 found this review helpful
I knew this game didn't get rave reviews, but I wanted to try it out anyways. When comparing it to other strategy-based games, Left Behind just doesn't measure up. It gets very repetitive (having to acquire the same buildings over and over every single mission) and just isn't the experience that you'd expect coming from a game that was developed from the great Left Behind series. I'm a big fan of Age of Empires III, and the difference between this game and that one is like night and day. I truly believe if the developers of AOE III would have worked on this, you'd easily have one of the top strategy games, hands down. However, this is not the case, and hopefully they'll do better next time. They're supposed to be developing another Left Behind game, and believe you me, it couldn't possibly be any worse than this one. Even die-hard fans of the book should stay away from this game, it's just not worth playing.
Honestly not very good.. June 6, 2007
8 out of 10 found this review helpful
I like the books. At least the early books, and I'm an avid video gamer so when I saw they had a Left behind game, I decided to give it a whirl. First of all, even though my PC is up to spec, the game has REALLY long load times. The tutorial was beastly, the interface awkward. The units (people), look too similar, and have specific assigned genders (such as no female soldiers, etc.) Halfway through the monstrously long and unweildy tutorial I gave up. The graphics and the clunky iterface just didn't do it for me.
I think this series would make a better adventure game... You know with puzzles and traveling to exotic locations (like those produced by DreamCatcher) The LB universe is so interesting it would really shine in that kind of environment. Particularly if characters could visit places such as Jerusalem, New Babylon, and Tribulation force HQ.
The one plus to this game was the soundtrack. It was beautiful.
