Title: Empire building, the hard way
Product review: You should definitely buy this game if you want to know what it is like to micromanage the construction and maintenance of a European empire. I don't. Its too much work. I want to build the empire without all the work. I should have saved my money.This product is a good (complex) simulation of Europe with interesting (but not excellent) graphics.Its problems: * Buggy software (It doesn't like running with other software and changed my video mode without restoring it afterward.) * Poor interface (I can't even start to mention all the things that are hard to do and easy to mess up.) * No help managing your units - the only thing they do by themselves is defend when attacked (its a good thing they do!) * No option for alternative geography, so, for example, even though you don't know about the New World, you really do.I really liked the sound of the game so much that I ignored what the other reviews said. I should have listened.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
