civ for maniacs. no better feeling than setting up a production line of black hearts for an unending wave of assassins all meant to destroy the commanders of your friend just because he made the world too cold

Incredibly dense strategy game with an unmatched variety of playable factions. Lack of diplomacy options and civics management ultimately makes it feel oddly shallow, especially in singleplayer. There's nothing else quite like it.

Probably one of the deepest and oddest strategy games I've ever played.

Genuinely recommend it if one cares little for graphics and likes 'weird' difficulty ideas. The sheer scale of combat depth in the auto battle system here continues to amaze me.
