  1. Not great

    Overall this is a strategy game with limited replayability, which is very bad.

  2. Hearts of Iron IV: Cadet Edition

    This is a brilliant strategy game with great historical focus and have the ability to change history through your actions ingame . I did decide to risk purchasing this due to the poor reviews. However, the key works and I got it for cheaper than on steam so I am really grateful that the key I received wasn't used. So overall I received a good product and I am pleased with my purchase.

  3. Best World War II Simulator

    What I especially appreciate about HOI 4 that does not exist in other WWII sims is the sheer amount of paths a nation can take. While in HOI 3 most nations are locked down into more historical paths, with only three main factions, in HOI 4, any nation has a path to join practically any faction (or make their own). A definite must-buy, especially on sale.
