Lux CommentaryNeeds fixing - Version: 5.72, 6/24/2008 02:59PM PST

some serious coding errors such as:

24/06/2008 8:45:58 [0x0-0x47b47b].com.sillysoft.lux[4616] LuxDelux(4616,0xf0d8d000) malloc: *** error for object 0x16a2a0: incorrect checksum for freed object - object was probably modified after being freed.

this will freeze not only lux but your whole system for twenty minutes at a time. with os x's protected memory vms this is quite an achievement.

spoils what is otherwise an excellent game.

If this were $10 I would buy it in a heartbeat.

The game is terrific, but too pricey.

Lux CommentarySlow and Been Done Before - Version: 5.6, 7/11/2007 09:50PM PST

First, the demo version was what I tried and after the first game it went into extremely slow motion and became unplayable. It took 5 seconds between clicks to see any action on the screen.

Second, this is Risk, sure, with a few variants to refresh the old genre, but all told a game that has been done to death. There are many, many more templates for quick strategy games out there that do not rely on the tedium and uncertainty of random conflict resolution. This is so 1970s.

It does look like the developer has put decent effort into support and community. I will say that.
