    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Gameplay is characterized by its challenging and rewarding tactical decisions, with players managing various military units in a detailed turn-based system. While many find the gameplay engrossing and deep, some users express frustration over visibility issues and a lack of tutorials, which can hinder the experience, particularly for new players. The gameplay experience varies significantly depending on the faction chosen, with some scenarios feeling overly lengthy or convoluted.

    • “Gameplay is challenging yet rewarding, offering hours of engrossing tactical decisions.”
    • “Players can command various military units, strategizing to achieve victory through detailed turn-based gameplay.”
    • “Deep gameplay and interesting scenarios.”
    • “Gameplay: mostly unknown, because it's not worth it to fight through the text and visibility issues.”
    • “However, since a big part of the gameplay is operating the map, I can safely say it's crap.”
    • “The biggest concern is the lack of a manual or tutorial; why the developers did not include even a short description of some of the mechanics for the game is beyond me.”
  • graphics
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Overall, the graphics received mixed feedback; while some users praised the catchy art style that complements the game's mood, others criticized the outdated hex tile design and suggested improvements such as larger tile sizes, better blending techniques, and more realistic river designs.

    • “The graphical/art style is really catchy, fits the mood perfectly.”
    • “Graphics are way too outdated. Hex tiles in the 21st century should use better techniques. The tile size should be larger than the hex size and could use transparency on the edges to blend with adjacent ones. Multilayer hexes are a very helpful and easy way to improve graphics. Rivers should not bend at 60-degree angles and should not look like ribbons.”

  • monetization
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization strategy of the game is perceived as a cash grab, reminiscent of outdated 2000s titles, with users expressing skepticism about the developer's integrity and history of releasing low-quality games on Steam.

    • “This seems like it was a really, really old 2000s era game and the developer got their hands on it (through shady or unshady means, who knows) and dumped it on Steam quickly as a cash grab. This wouldn't be a surprise given the developer's history of shady crapware on Steam.”
  • story
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story has been criticized to the point where it significantly impacts the overall recommendation of the game, suggesting that it may be a major flaw in the experience.

    • “That's basically the whole story on why I cannot recommend this game.”
