The graphics, while dated, still provide a decent visual experience with good destruction physics and detailed animations.

The gameplay is a mixed bag, featuring a promising concept and enjoyable mechanics, but ultimately suffers from significant issues that render it frustrating and largely unplayable. Players are disappointed by the reliance on a bland overworld map and excessive text, which detracts from the action-oriented experience they expected. Despite these flaws, some users appreciate the complex nation management system and have created mods to enhance the gameplay.
- “I actually like this game, because the gameplay reminds me of War Leaders: Clash of Nations but with an older era and only covering Europe instead of the whole world, but I still like it!”
- “Alas, the main game's mechanics are broken beyond repair, so it's not worth the hassle.”
- “If you are interested, I've created some mods to correct some of the game's bugs and to tweak gameplay a bit.”
- “It has a complex yet fairly easy to use nation management system, and this is what makes up the bulk of the gameplay.”

The graphics of the game are generally considered decent, with some elements like tactical maps being particularly well-received for their detail. However, opinions vary widely, with some users describing the graphics as outdated and lacking compared to modern standards. Overall, while the visuals are satisfactory for a game of its era, they may not meet the expectations of players accustomed to more contemporary graphics.
- “Besides that, the game has a great variety of units, decent graphics, most of the important historical figures, and many character skills that give more depth to the grand strategy aspect of the game.”
- “Weirdo music, no info about missions, the worst graphics I've ever seen...”
- “The graphics are still totally okay (in 2007 it was great!), and especially the tactical maps are really well done and extremely detailed.”
- “There is also a decently basic RTS-styled fighting system where you can watch buildings blow up in graphical detail and lead your tanks and infantry to victory!”

The story aspect of the game features a mix of historical and situational events, alongside random missions that can feel disjointed and poorly timed. Players engage in resource management and industry development while navigating these events, but many find the random missions frustrating due to their lack of clarity and the abrupt challenges they present. Overall, the narrative experience is marred by confusing elements and subpar graphics.
- “You have many events, some will be historical (like proposals to finance the killing of Duke Franz Ferdinand or changing the government in Russia), some situational (like entering and forfeiting alliances and trading deals), or just random and sporadic (like there is a diplomatic mission, or some scientific congress, or something else is going on, and you may participate for a small resource bonus).”
- “The stupid random missions, like a visit with your scientist to the congress somewhere only to be caught and killed by 'neutrals' on the way, for no reason.”
- “The random missions don't give you enough time to even complete them.”
- “Weirdo music, no info about missions, the worst graphics I've ever seen...”
