How it feels

A methodical, large-scale strategy game where you guide a faction through historical events via diplomacy, politics, and conquest.

What players say

Players generally appreciate the ambition and low price, but many are frustrated by the tiny number of historical characters (most are randomly generated), repetitive rebellions, and overly manual UI. The game has only the 190 scenario and no way to play as figures like Lü Bu. Reviews split on whether the depth justifies the quirks.
