I'm with you, but my GF loved the first game. This one reminds me of that one but with more personality and some technical improvements.

@VelvetLore04: Basically, a simplified version of the Settlers.  Not very deep but still quite fun, especially on multiplayer.

So this is a simple The Settlers clone for consoles with some RPG elements?

I wasn't sure what to expect before starting this quick look but it looks pretty interesting.  
 
Also, just out of interest does anyone know of any other games that phase between split screen and full screen? I seem to remember something else doing it but I'm not sure what it was.

I have heard good things about the original game so this should be interesting enough.

You can make a sheep pin, I recommend making it big enough that you can also put the loom in it. :) 
 
The trick is to close it completely off with the exception of the gate, then kick the sheep through the gate.

Those Keflings need to be kicked more so they get the fear of god in them.

The first order of Overlord Vinny is to viciously crack down on all Ilos and Milos. He doesn't like their kind around these parts.
 
Game looks okay. I wonder how long the tutorial lasts? Looks like a lot to keep track of.

I made the sheep pen using the Island to the south east (the one with the bear statues), that way I only had to make a gate to pen them in. Also my kingdom was spread out over the whole thing.

If anyone here has played it, do you know if when you play the online co-op does it split the screen in the same way as the local?

I'm amazed how close that avatar actually resembles Vinny. Brad is a bit further away. But I see the Vinny character, and I know immediately whom that might be.

Neat QL, loved the first one & this one seems like a well crafted sequel in how they improved on elements of the gameplay.

For someone who hasn't heard about/played Keflings before, that box art makes this game look like something completely different than what it is.

There should be more multiplayer QLs. As a campaigner for offline multiplayer, I want to see it happen.

I never had time to play much of the first one but this one is intriguing. Though I do have so many other games I should be playing.

@gbrading:  I had the same reaction.  Especially picking up villagers/Keflings and placing them down to give them "jobs".  I'd play this with a friend, but I wonder - once you "beat it", is there any reason to play around more?
