The game's stability is heavily criticized, with numerous users reporting it as extremely buggy and often unplayable, particularly during gameplay involving military units.

Many recommend avoiding the game until significant improvements are made.
- “The first 1-3 months are bug-free, but after that, the game becomes unplayable.”
- “If you want a smooth, bug-free experience, do not buy this.”
- “I've been playing in the early access stage; I feel like every sim is trying to get the game to be bug-free.”

The gameplay has received significant criticism for its poor design choices and numerous bugs, leading to a frustrating experience for players. Many reviewers noted that while the warfare mechanics function adequately, the overall gameplay feels outdated and lacks innovation compared to previous titles. The introduction of new features, such as managing large companies, is overshadowed by persistent technical issues and clunky mechanics, resulting in a disappointing experience for fans of the genre.
- “In terms of gameplay, we find everything that was present in the previous edition, Power & Revolution, but the main new feature is the possibility of managing large companies where you play the role of CEO. The game is very focused on capitalism, such as the stock market, the purchase and sale of subsidiaries, and financial management.”
- “My sincere recommendation, because I really enjoy the genre and mechanics of GPS, is to focus on the core gameplay aspects.”
- “Compare this to Superpower 2 — a game from 2004 — which, despite its age, still offers superior gameplay.”
- “I can overlook bugs or clunky menus if the core gameplay is strong, but this just doesn’t deliver.”
- “Basic mechanics don’t work, AI behaves like it was coded by someone who just discovered programming last week, and half the time, features either don’t function or break something else when used.”
- “It’s more of the same in terms of gameplay and bugs, while always seeming to just make things worse.”

The graphics of the game have received mixed reviews, with many players expressing disappointment over poor optimization and a lack of significant visual improvements compared to previous iterations. While some appreciate the new designs and enhancements, others criticize the dated textures, repetitive character models, and persistent bugs that hinder performance, even on high-end systems. Overall, the consensus suggests that the graphics feel stale and underwhelming, failing to meet modern standards.
- “The graphics are amazing, and I love the new things in the game.”
- “The new graphic designs and the added solar system map for satellites and space missions are impressive.”
- “The graphics have improved significantly, making the game visually appealing.”
- “I haven't commented in all these years because I didn't want to undermine the developers of the game, but the theme, visuals, and quality of this year's game are completely ruined.”
- “The graphics are assuming you can even run it. For example, I have a Ryzen 9 7950X3D, 64GB 6000 DDR5 RAM, RTX 4090, and I'm barely getting 30 FPS on high. It's not like there are massive improvements; putting aside the bugs, the game retexture looks dated from 2016, and the city models are copy-pasted but just rotated. Ironically, like all their games, copy-pasted with a little change, and the characters are exactly the same in both texture and model.”
- “I kept encountering the same graphics, animations, and UI elements that were present in earlier iterations, making the game feel stale and lazy.”

The game's optimization has been widely criticized, with many users reporting poor performance, crashes, and a lack of intuitive design despite having modern systems that meet or exceed the minimum specifications. Reviewers emphasize that significant improvements are needed to enhance the overall experience, as current issues detract from enjoyment and gameplay.
- “The game runs fine on my system, which meets the minimum spec, so performance isn’t the issue — it’s the design choices and gameplay.”
- “The game would've benefited significantly from a streamlined focus, prioritizing performance and polish over an exhaustive (and ultimately broken) feature set.”
- “The UI could be more intuitive, and the game still struggles with optimization on certain systems.”
- “Not only do the same bugs persist, but the game also suffers from a severely unoptimized experience that’s downright frustrating.”
- “The performance issues alone are enough to ruin any enjoyment.”
humor
5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
100%
The humor in the game is perceived as unintentional, with players finding the outdated graphics and character models amusingly bad, leading to a sense of frustration rather than genuine laughter. Many reviewers express that the game's technical issues and design choices evoke a mix of humor and disappointment, as they feel the developers are mocking the players with a subpar product. Overall, the humor stems from the game's flaws rather than intentional comedic elements.
- “Still looks like it's made in the early 2000s and the faces/voices are more of a funny-bad situation.”
- “It’s funny but also worrying how often I’ve seen UK cities misplaced in the South Atlantic.”
- “The developers seem to be laughing at us when they deployed this version as a full game.”
monetization
3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

The monetization strategy of the game has been criticized as a blatant cash grab, with players feeling that they are being charged annually for an unfinished product rather than receiving meaningful updates or improvements.
- “Even FIFA players, often criticized for yearly cash grabs, at least get working versions of their games.”
- “It's a shameless attempt to excuse its unfinished state and justify ongoing cash grabs.”
- “Yearly cash grab without fixes.”

Reviewers note that the game's replayability is hindered by technical issues, particularly crashes that disrupt progress. While the premise is promising, improvements are needed to enhance the overall playability and encourage repeated playthroughs.
