How it feels

Feels like micromanaging a nation's economy, military, and politics in real-time, with a dense, simulation-heavy pace that rewards planning and patience.

What players say

Players love the complexity and depth but the game suffers from severe performance slowdowns and poor AI that make it unplayable after 20 in-game years. The pace is extremely slow even at maximum speed, and the learning curve is steep enough that it takes dozens of hours to grasp the core mechanics.
