The company I work for was demoing several of our products at MacWorld
New York, at the United Developers booth (the publishing company that
will be publishing the products we demoed). The CyberLore folks were at
the same booth demoing the Mac version of Majesty (they will publish it
through that publisher as well). Lots of kids saw the game and loved it,
including, and this surprised me - younger girls as well. There was a 12
year old girl (estimate on age) who sat and played the game for about an
hour! Even adults of all ages and genders seemed to take an interest in
the game.
For one, I think the fact that the player can focus on the game and not
micromanaging, is something that attracts interest. I actually enjoyed
the game as well, because of the fact that I didn't have to micromanage
(which is a turn off with games like MAster of Orion 2, one of my
favorites, but a real drainer when your empire gets big).
