    17% positive mentions, 78% neutral mentions, 5% negative mentions

    The story aspect is generally seen as engaging with historically inspired missions, but many users criticize the progression system requiring stars and costly special troops to advance, leading to frustration and perceived pay-to-win elements. Missions become increasingly difficult without upgrades, and players desire more varied content, deeper backstory, and historical context. Persistent bugs and limited mission variety also detract from the overall narrative experience.

    • “Didn't expect a game to include details like the first mission where Polish cavalry fights against German panzers!”
    • “Great game and storyline isn't pay to win at all; with pure skill and a small grind you can accomplish anything. I hope it has multiplayer in later updates.”
    • “Very good, very nice mechanics, but please add some backstory, names of cities, and a world map where you can select your own country and start your conquest.”
    • “But let down by the fact you can't really get past mission 6 without putting in money.”
    • “The game has been created in such a way that after some missions, it becomes way too difficult to proceed further without purchasing the special troops from the shop.”
    • “First two missions give me hope that I'll be able to actually play this and make progress but as soon as I get to level 3 it gets impossible.”
  • graphics

    The graphics of the game are generally praised for being high-quality, realistic, and visually appealing, contributing positively to the overall experience. Some users find the artwork beautiful and the visuals reminiscent of classic strategy titles, though a few note that graphics could be improved in clarity, detail, or modernity. Overall, graphics are seen as a strong aspect, enhancing immersion despite occasional requests for updates or refinements.

    • “Excellent graphics, missions are great and the controls are very good.”
    • “The best strategy game I have played since the PC disc games days; this download app game is high quality with superb graphics and ease of playing. I had fun.”
    • “Great graphics, this game really tests your knowledge of military tactics.”
    • “Can you make the graphics not look like a game from the past?”
    • “No major problems but I find the graphics quite hard to see on my phone, so different units look pretty similar.”
    • “LQ graphics and can't compare with gog.”
  • monetization

    46 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    9% positive mentions, 13% neutral mentions, 78% negative mentions

    The game's monetization relies heavily on frequent, sometimes intrusive ads and in-app purchases, which many users find excessive and necessary to progress. While some appreciate the option to watch ads for rewards, issues such as inconsistent rewards, high prices, and aggressive prompts to spend money detract from the experience. Overall, players feel the monetization approach leans toward aggressive cash-grabbing, diminishing enjoyment despite the game's merits.

    • “There's no ads, but bundle packs you can buy.”
    • “In-app purchase problem was fixed by the developer; it took a while but they worked on the problem until it was fixed.”
    • “Completely free with almost no ads!”
    • “Everything about the game seems slapped together and rushed just to make some quick money from ads and in game purchases.”
    • “Let's you play one round, then bombards you with in app purchase options to the point where you can't do anything but buy something in order to continue.”
    • “In general the game is well laid out and is a very good game, my big concern is the advertising of the purchase price of in game store; after purchasing a package for the price of $7.99 the true price was $16.99. This to me is very concerning as the true price is not being reflected, only way to contact game support is via Facebook, which is a shame as the game is very good.”

There are occasional issues with controls, fairness, and text presentation, and suggestions include adding more game modes, resources, and customization options to enhance replayability.

    • “Gameplay is awesome.”

    • “It doesn't have a domination mode which would make the gameplay a lot better instead of just playing a campaign.”
    • “The game had very odd controls and was not very fair in its gameplay, and the infantry having to be the one to take a city was annoying.”

    Grinding in the game is tedious and time-consuming, requiring repetitive play of the same early maps for extended periods to earn upgrades. The difficulty is high, and there is no resource farming to acquire new generals or units, making progression feel slow and laborious.
