This is one of the best strategy games you can get for mobile. The graphics are simple, but the game's mechanics allow for infinite variations of strategy. The biggest part of this game is the diplomacy aspect, which is expertly executed. You have a chat button to talk to other players, and this is how you make alliances. However, there is no in-game mechanic keeping you from breaking whatever agreement you made. You must trust your allies, or betray them to win. Excellent game!

Best strategy game for mobile I've ever played. Simple, easy-to-understand mechanics produce countless tactical options. That's not even including the game's emphasis on diplomacy. This is a real strategy game, nothing contrived or pointless about it, it hits straight at the heart of what serious strategy players are looking for in a game. Further expansion is unneccessary for this well thought out game, but it would only improve as long as what it already is stays intact.

This game is one of the most intense games I've ever played. It is forced diplomacy which is extremely rare. It is life consuming though. So unless you have a lot of free time and sleep sporadically the game may be too much to handle. If you pay however the game is perfect. But without paying the multi boxers will make the experience unworthy. There are a lot of cheaters and trolls so the best thing is to pay and control the hosting then they can be avoided.
