I didn't see what this had that much to do with empires of any kind. I still like this and thought it was well done. I really was quite impressed by the good graphics. It just seemed like something that wouldn't be that interesting at first. It certainly got better. I liked the music.
At least this managed to win some kind of award. I appreciated how fast paced it was. I think the towers themselves could use work. Dang, Christmas really is celebrated early here. I wasn't expecting a Christmas theme at all.
