Siege is a combination strategy puzzle game created by Fallen Angel Industries.
I'll start with the good points. Siege combines strategy based combat with puzzle based resources. You use 1 of six generals to wage war against and opponent with 20 types of units which are "summoned" by making complete puzzles in the puzzle grid; the larger you make the combos the more powerful your units are. It's really not as hard as it sounds but you'd have to play to get it; the game itself comes with a tutorial so it's nothing to worry about. The true fun of this game is in the two player mode where you can play against another human; then the game gets truly challenging. The graphics are kinda fun. They are not bad for freeware. Another thing that makes this game great is the ridiculous amount of blood and gore while your units fight . One of my personal favourite aspects of this game is the ability to strategize. For example you can pick a massive tank castle which is intolerable to try and destroy or for example you could use a weaker fort that can produce better units in end game.
In my opinion, this is a classic worth the download; the graphics are good for their time, the menu is bad ass, and the game play is unique and definitely a great idea. But by far the best game play is two player when you play against another person; it's a fun light strategy game that you can play quickly with a friend and it's not a huge file so you can take around on a usb and give it to your friends so you can all get a bit of practice and hold tournaments .

~patch776Siege is what I'd call a competitive puzzle/action game. Much like a puzzle game, it involved joining up a few blocks to create something. Join up two iron blocks and you get a simple footman. The larger your block combos, the more powerful your creations get. You could create airships, dragons, and necromancers with much bigger block combinations.
What makes it better than most puzzle games is that you could play it against a friend. There's a few strategic choices.. you could go with a simple, tough castle, or a fragile fort that lets you build the more advanced units. Unit choices can be interesting too, send forward armies of small troops or mix between soldiers and archers. Or you could spend twice as long to build an army of knights.
Graphics and music are simple, catchy, though there's quite a bit of excess blood and gore.
The drawback is that single player is not much fun, only worth it for practice, but it's a quick, light game, fun for multiplayer.
