Set in the world of Mindcraft's The Magic Candle,[2] Siege is a castle-combat war game in which the player controls either the hordes of darkness (including orcs, trolls, domugs, and tekhirs) or the warriors of good (humans, dwarves, and elves), in a campaign in Western Gurtex that involves either attacking or defending one of its four castles.

The player manages elite troops, berserkers, sergeants, and engineers, as well as assault and defense equipment (such as ballistae, burning oil, battering rams, mobile bridges, siege towers, assault ladders, and catapults) and magicians who use spells against the enemy.

The magazine criticized the lack of detail in win conditions and a too-predictable AI opponent, but concluded that the game "is an all-around unique and engaging simulation ...

[3] Niko Nirvi of Pelit summarized: "AI is a bit weak, but the violence, playability and digitized effects make this an excellent strategy game".

As the attacker, you'll be in your glory as you rain arrows at defenders in order to protect your troops who are scaling ladders placed by your engineers.
