### 5/5 — Is this what it was like for Germany in the 1930s?

*2026-05-30*

Fun game. Hard at first since your army's weak and you're too broke to upgrade anything or get new units. Once you start building up your nation and making money however, you'll keep getting threatened and attacked by everyone else, even if you've made no attacks on other countries, while the invaders cry "you dare threaten us" or "cease your brutal attacks!" I just wanted to be left alone...

### 4/5 — Good gameplay and features

*2025-09-21, version 1.4.8*

Game is really good and fun to play in my free time

### 2/5 — Не получил тиранты

*2025-05-09*

Дважды заплатил 249 рублей, которые благополучно списали, а тиранты так и не появились

### 2/5 — Integer Overflow

*2025-03-23*

Please change the data type of cash. I got so much money that it went negative. I've been unable to continue my save for years because of this. Love the game though ❤️

### 1/5 — U

*2023-10-21*

U can’t take the cards and use them during war

### 1/5 — Настройки игры не работают

*2022-07-07*

Изменение настроек по части отключения звука и/или музыки в игре не дают никаких результатов. В настройках они выключены - в игре на всю «гремят»..
При перезаходе настройки сбрасываются на включение всех параметров.
В общем невозможно послушать музыку свою и поиграть, ужасно перебивают звуки игры…
Только из-за этого 1, играть невозможно!
11pro модель iPhone

### 2/5 — верните деньги

*2022-04-29*

Игра скучная и легкая

### 3/5 — Ужс

*2022-03-30*

Зависает. Весь прогресс впустую

### 3/5 — Обновление

*2022-02-11*

ВЫ СЕРЬЕЗНО?! После обновление все стало намного дороже. Востоковедное армии в 10 раз больше, советники тоже в несколько раз дороже. Чтобы вкачать пенсионный фонд на 15 уровень, мне теперь надо 1 миллиард, а не 35 миллионов… ЧТО ЗА БРЕД?! Игра прекрасна, но обновление… конечно круто что теперь нет рамок. Но все же. Надеюсь это вы вернёте.

### 1/5 — Бессмысленно

*2022-01-08*

Глупая игра без какого-либо геймплея. Все задачи однотипные и никак не влияют друг на друга
