SpellForce 3 is the perfect blend between RTS and RPG! The game goes back to the roots of the SpellForce saga. The story takes place before the acclaimed SpellForce: The Order of Dawn and the players becomes a part of a rich high fantasy world named Eo.
About the story
"It is the year 518, before the Convocation. The rebellion of the four royal houses against the crown of Nortander instigated by a renegade mage has been quashed by the Queen with the help of a loyal house, but it was a Pyrrhic victory; the war has devastated the country and public order has broken down in many regions, where the law of the strongest now reigns. As if that wasn’t enough, the Queen was seriously injured in the last battle of the war and has been lying in a coma ever since, so the supreme commander of the royal forces is now in charge of state affairs either until she awakens or dies, in which case her niece will step up as her successor. The Lord Marshal rules with an iron fist in his attempt to restore stability to the country and has, among other things, used magic, which is prohibited in Nortander unless under exceptional circumstances. But there is a glimmer of light in these dark times. There are growing signs that Aonir, the Godfather, has returned to Eo. Increasing numbers of people are looking to Aonir as the only God, and pray he will lead Nortander to another golden age. Although your father was one of the rebel mages, as a member of the royal army you have remained loyal to the Queen. Will you uphold your responsibilities toward Nortander?"

Critic Reviews
Bazimag
By Sina GolabzadeA mature and dark story is presented in SpellForce 3: Soul Harvest’s campaign and the visuals, specially the lighting and magic effects, are some of the best out there but the UI is so cluttered that half of the time you are bewildered about what you should be doing next.
GameSpace
By Catherine DaroSummary: SpellForce 3: Soul Harvest is an excellent RTS with RPG elements that smoothed out many rough edges of its predecessor. The developers put a great deal of effort into the expansion in order to improve the game in every aspect.
33bits
By Jon Andoni OrtizA huge attempt to unite two genres that at first sight do not seem at all compatible. SpellForce 3: Soul Harvest is a game to be reckoned with, and the fact that it comes at a reduced price makes it much more appealing. All the new features improve what we've seen in SpellForce 3, and above all it's been really polished, without any serious problems.
AusGamers
By KostaAndreadisWith several quality of life and mechanic upgrades from SpellForce 3, Soul Harvest is an enjoyable experience that scratches both the RPG and RTS itch. A blend that still feels unique to this series, and one that continues to impress all these years later.
GameSkinny
By RobotsFightingDinosaursPacked with content, SpellForce 3: Soul Harvest is a must-play RPG-RTS hybrid... if you don't mind multitasking.
