Their page manager probably forgot to make a nice big banner for the demo - you can access it via a small button just to the right of game's "Recent Events & Announcements" section.

Demo out two weeks after release? Good, but no cigar.

The game itself is missing basic mechanics that made JA2 what it was. It's still fun, but it could have been so much better. Also, optimization is terrible as in it looks like a game from 5-7 years ago and somehow it is GPU heavy.

Yeah, gpu is at 100% but cpu is only at 23%.

PS: The gpu drop is because I had to pause the game.

CPU is barely doing anything. Dunno if Demo includes the fixes introduced in last patch but shadows set to Ultra were pretty much killing every GPU out there in release version.
