PREMISE:          Lord Monarch combines elements of Warcraft and Populous.
                  The modest goal is to take over the world.  Populate your
                  domain, then spread out over the rest of the map.  Sweep
                  away the other lands and bring the one truth - yours - to
                  the rest of the world....  If you're clever enough to get
                  past the initial world, the warfare moves to the deadly
                  battleground of fast food restaurants.... (KickAss Games)

IMPRESSIONS:      An RPG that doesn't take itself too seriously.  The self-
                  pompous music is well suited to this tongue-in-cheek
                  adventure.  Employs both top-down and isometric graphics.
                  The kingdom-building and battle systems are among the
                  easiest to understand for this kind of game, even if you
                  don't know the language.  You don't have to read Japanese
                  in order to enjoy this game, folks - it's a riot!
