Sit back and relax. Follow your interstellar journey and make your own civilization history.
You can be bird who wage wars due to fear of aliens, or a molluscoid who isolate and focus on researching fallen civilizations.

Been playing this on PS4 quite a while and rebuy on Steam.
The game still great in 2024, even more during sales.

Still the greatest Zombie apocalypse game in my opinion.
no microtransaction, great world, good gameplays, interesting NPC can be recruited.
Good to play in single player or with friend. Hopefully there will be map DLC or SOD 3 in the future.

1936-1945 in normal speed and I still busy clicking here and there.
Love this DLC, plenty content to add, makes paradrop, air raid and nuking more interesting and easier.
Well done Paradox.

Been playing the OG 8 on my high school days.
Gameplay and systems were overhauled and simplified, learning technique can be gain from relationship and there's still various of roleplay elements inside.
Battle is more balanced and strategical, no more spamming siege tower just like the old days. Combat is more challenging this way, the only problems is fire that can't be extinguished, I took that as part of realism lol.

What to say more is the child raising systems are interesting, and seeing them grow from child to adult every year is fun. You can rush conquering the land but you can also take it slowly to see your legacy grow.

You can wait to buy it when PUK edition out. Early game can be frustrating especially if you start your officer really low.

It's Warframe with Freedom and Democracy.

If you looking for multiplayer experience, hold your hype.
This game is still under early access and need a lot of improvement for servers etc.

One of the simulation management games that have high replayability.
Building elements are flexible and easy. 7th floor of buildings? why not!
Soccer field on rooftop? sure.
Wait, you want each passage have security checking on your students bags? You can do that too.

This game have a lot of offer. Hopefully They add more contents in the future like new maps, new facilities and stuff.
If you're a fan of simulation management, you gotta like this too.

Soothing and adorable city building game.
Definitely need more bigger maps, better if able to seed from randomly generated so the possibilities to replay the game is higher and never get bored.

Unlike the other Paradox games I played, Victoria 3 feels like more passive and focus on the 'desk work' looking at spreadsheets, adjusting decision for buildings, law and population.

Seeing the cities growth overtime is satisfying, but managing the culture wasn't easy as EUIV, I think I was rule the people, but it was those people who ruled me after all. Can't make everyone happy and getting into multiculturalism is a long way for certain countries.

At first 16 hours I found it's difficult to like the base game, but after giving it more try, I get a grasp about the flow at 24 hours playtime. Now I just waiting for more mods and updates.

You can wait to buy the game later, but I'm still recommending this game especially if you don't mind with simplified War gameplay.
