The game is widely criticized for its severe stability issues, including frequent freezes, crashes, and numerous glitches that hinder gameplay. Many users describe it as a "buggy mess" that feels unfinished and unpolished, leading to frustration and a lack of recommendation.

Gameplay reviews highlight a mix of potential and frustration, with many players noting the game's realistic country management mechanics and depth. However, the experience is marred by numerous bugs, glitches, and poorly functioning mechanics, leading to a tedious and often anti-climactic experience. While the concept is engaging, the execution leaves much to be desired, with players expressing disappointment over the time investment required to navigate the game's flaws.
- “The wargame is in-depth and exceptional; you can play as any country you wish (with a few exceptions including city-states such as the Vatican and Monaco). You can play a multitude of scenarios ranging from World War 3 to Chilean tourism, and the gameplay is astoundingly realistic, covering issues from social mores to military strategy.”
- “The gameplay is very deep, and it's very challenging to achieve your goals.”
- “As far as gameplay, it is the most realistic representation of modern-day country management, though that might not be saying much.”
- “I bought this game at full price and demand a refund because it's so bland, the graphics are poor, and the gameplay is anti-climactic and boring.”
- “The idea of this game is vast and quite exciting at first... but after spending over 50 hours trying to find ways around all the bugs, the complicated dynamics, and gameplay, I'm convinced there is no hope for this game.”
- “Considering this game was released in March 2013, I don't see how they can justify the price of £39.99. Despite the updates this game has received, there are still many flaws and odd bugs that crop up during gameplay.”
