### 4/5 — Please Update the game

*2026-03-25, version 2.6.2*

The game still has more potential to improve if you guys can update more contents, as it has been years since the last patch.

### 4/5 — Good Game

*2026-01-01, version 2.6.2*

It is a great game to play however can you make more of the generals free. 

The game is really fun to play and the campaign is nice and challenging.

It is also nice that it is not a pay to win game unless your brain doesn’t have a strategy. 

Why do you have things that cost so much I haven’t paid a single Penney and I am still really advanced into the game.

Can you make the conquest have a hard mode. It would also be nice if you added more cities.

### 5/5 — Great Game

*2025-07-05, version 2.6.2*

Love your game as always, hopefully these old titles get updated too.

### 1/5 — A disgrace

*2025-07-02, version 2.6.2*

I get that the creators might not be Muslim but you don’t even have the slightest respect for Islam. Not only are you dipicting the companions of prophets but what kind of clothes is Fatima wearing? Just.. add a glow to their faces and make Fatima wear something modest. I love your games but you have been very disrespectful towards Islam and our famous figures.

### 5/5 — Best game ever

*2025-07-02, version 2.6.2*

This changed my life

### 5/5 — Peak

*2025-06-15, version 2.6.2*

Peak but the grind from 3 to 4 and 4 to 5 is unreal

### 5/5 — อัปเดฟ

*2025-04-23, version 2.6.2*

เมื่อไรจะอัปเดฟรออยู่

### 5/5 — Bestes Spiel ever

*2025-02-23, version 2.6.2*

European War 5 ist mit riesigem Abstand das beste Strategie Spiel was ich jemals gespielt habe. Sehr zu empfehlen!

### 5/5 — Xerxes & Update

*2024-11-03, version 2.6.2*

I’ve been playing this game for five years, and I love it so much that I’ve purchased various items.

However, this year’s update has taken too long, and it’s disappointing if the game is neglected.

Another issue: I’m an Iranian player, and my favorite general is Xerxes, but he’s been made so weak with such low abilities that I haven’t used him in any battles. Please consider redesigning him.

And I sincerely thank your esteemed team.

### 5/5 — Good game fun game

*2024-10-23, version 2.6.2*

It fun
