Stumbled across this despite it being 10 years and it looks perfectly in my area of interest. I get excited and read the whole rulebook and wanna hop into a game just to find out that if want to be in more than one game at a time, or get access to some other simple features, I gotta pay. That's fine, I'm willing to spend money on a solid game. But FIFTEEN dollars for a mobile game? Idk, kind of a turn off when other great mobile games are usually half that price or less.

By far the best strategy game I've ever played. A wonderful blend of strategy, critical thinking, and diplomacy. The perfect game for the working man - the games play at a speed which allows for a busy life and doesn't need to be constantly checked (unless you're a maniac like me and you're running 5 games at a time). The latest update made everything very smooth and there's so many options when it comes to strategizing a win.

Okay. Let me get one thing straight. This game WAS a five-star. However, after a week or so of playing, I realized just how limited you are without L2 access. And, I get it, gotta make money somehow, keep the servers up and all that, but if that's the case, why not just make this game pay to play? $15 is not an unreasonable price for full access to a game, don't get me wrong, but again. The P2P option was right there. Great concept, decent execution, but if you can't afford L2 like me, skip it.
