    If you are looking for an intelligent and very deep strategy experience in an under-explored time period, look no further.

    A diamond in the rough. It is apparent that a great deal of research and design went into the creation of this title, but unfortunately, the same cannot be said for the documentation and tutorial.

    A very large game with a large amount of strategy, if you have the patience to learn how to play. To really be a great game, the interface needs to be totally redesigned, along with the manual.

    Underdeveloped niche title will only appeal to a special few.

    Bluntly, depth doesn't automatically mean satisfaction, and even within this very small strategy niche, "Europa Universalis II" is a much better choice if this is the kind of warmongering that floats your trireme. [May 2006, p.93]

    In Great Invasions, The Dark Ages refer to the hours upon hours you’ll spend trying to make sense of things.

    A proper historical simulator is a great idea, but as it stands I would much rather play Risk then ever look at this one again.
