"If you’re one of those people that like to take old games you haven’t played in years, install them, update drivers, live with awful resolutions and failed expectations, then Majesty 2 is the game for you — except without all that trouble. Plus, it’s prettier. I like shiney."

Diehard Gamefan - Score: Good Game!
”If you long for the days when Dungeon Keeper played havoc with your free time, then Majesty 2 should be right up your alley. It’s both fun and has that parody humor so often seen in this genre such as in Evil Genius. ”
Dreamstation - Score: 9.5/10
”Majesty 2: The Fantasy Kingdom Sim is really shaping up to be a gem. If you enjoy RTS games and also enjoy RPG elements being mixed in you will most likely love this title. If you are a fan of the first there is no doubt in my mind you will adore the second. ”
Examiner - Score: 9/10
Highly recommended: ”...Majesty 2 is well worth price of admission. The extra layer of economic strategy and town management – which gives the game an almost puzzle-like element -- makes for a compelling time suck of a game.”

”The best thing these new developers have done is capture the genius of the original game. Imitation isn't just the sincerest form of flattery, but it's also a damn fine way to make a sequel. ”
Game Banshee - Score: 7.6/10
"Overall, Majesty 2 has some pluses and minuses. The engine is solid and bug free, the game provides 20-30 hours of gameplay (which isn’t bad considering its $30 price tag), and the game mechanics are still unique."
Game Debate - Score: 9/10

"This is a great game, that should be played by anyone who likes this genre. Without the faults listed above, this would be a perfect game."
Holy Ramen Empire - Score: 8/10
"Overall, Majesty 2 is a great remake of a great game. The repetitive missions are a bit bland at times, and with no real significant upgrades to the guilds and their heroes, old players already know what to expect when it comes to playing the game."

”The game play is solid and enjoyable – it kept me glued to my computer for a number of multi-hour sessions. The unique method for controlling your heroes through monetary rewards is fun and rather than get in teh way of game play, helps define it. That’s how you can tell a successful implementation by the way. ”
