    • “Overall the game mechanics, diplomacy system, and the graphics, are hardly anything more than a remaking of European War 7 combined with some features of other EasyTech games, disappointing!”

Overall, the soundtrack is seen as a missed opportunity to elevate the game's immersive qualities.

  • monetization
    7 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game features no intrusive ads, allowing for an uninterrupted gameplay experience, but players express concerns about the high cost of in-app purchases, which can create an imbalance between paying and non-paying users.

  • optimization
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's optimization has received significant criticism, particularly in the "conquest" mode, where players experience frustratingly low performance, including long wait times for turns and low frame rates. While the overall gameplay and animations are praised, the optimization issues detract from the experience, leading to requests for performance improvements.

    • “Game is the meaning of 'top' - perfect campaign, interesting and amazing gameplay, animations are great. However, I give 3 stars because of optimization in the 'conquer' mode. I literally wait 10-15 minutes for the end of turn, with 5-11 fps. It's just not normal, but I am sure you can fix this; you are a great game industry with great products.”
    • “Great game! My only problem is that the conquest is too slow; it's as slow as heck. Can you make it optimized?”
