Pizza Fria
In-depth simulation of population, economy and politics
Brazilian Portuguese subtitles
Modular automation and mission trees that teach the purpose, not just clicks.
Very high replayability; the campaigns tell different stories.
Live map, sleek user interface, and incredible soundtrack.
AI tends to be conservative, lacking strategic aggressiveness in some scenarios.
Irregular performance during month ends and global events; occasional crashes.
Extremely steep learning curve; more detailed tutorials are missing.

GamersGlobal
Help bubble system with good explanations...
Very finely adjustable support thanks to automation
Detailed map with many filters
Very complete game systems, the learning of which is fun
Demanding disasters and atmospheric events
Effect of the search "Just one more year"
Depending on the country of departure, the challenges can be very different.
Complexity and richness of content appreciated by fans for the next ten years.
Portraits of sovereigns and dynasties encourage greater identification.
The cartographic representation is overall very successful.
Orchestral and atmospheric soundtrack
... but still an extremely long learning phase
Overview, especially in times of war, can sometimes be poor.
Some values for the calculation are not transparent.
Partially inappropriate formatting of summary tables
For some systems, a large amount of micromanagement is necessary in order to learn.
Lengths at the end of the game due to too many AI alliances (almost no more expansion possible)
AI behavior during conquests is not always understandable.
Bugs and consequently crashes
Incomplete German translation
