Sorely tempted to purchase, despite not having time to play all the other titles I've purchased on sale for $5 or $10... not to mention the AAA titles I need to finish. Damn decisions!

You could steal the villagers food, burn their homes down, kidnap the womenfolk and generally trash the world if you so wanted. The 'violent yet benevolent' route was less fun for sure. You just have to manually target things to do evil stuff. It won't let you passively attack villagers. You have to manually target them. In the expansion you got to become ruler of hell itself, even.

Despite that, I've sunk quite a few hours into it and I'm looking forward to a sequel. Some sort of heads-up minimap would be a nice addition, you know, along with the magical wolves.
