What players say

The game is too complicated without any realistic support to explain the complexity. I've watched countless hours of online videos to try and understand the games mechanics and plays countless hours trying to do well in this game. Ultimately it is a disappointing game experience and I would not recommend buying it or trying to learn this game. Have fun with something else.
