How it feels
A slow, methodical grand strategy game where you manage national economies and military forces through the grinding realities of World War I.

What players say
Players praise the economic and production depth, but are split on whether the complexity is rewarding or tedious. Many report crashes, especially an out-of-memory error after about 100 turns, and note the AI makes bizarre diplomatic and military decisions. The interface is widely criticized as clunky and hard to read on 4k screens.
