The color is the direction: green raises the score, red lowers it, grey sits neutral. ▼ marks a dock, ? a missing input, • a fact this genre's score does not use. The exact weights stay secret. These are the inputs and the direction each pushes.

I actually swore to myself I'd never buy another Paradox game again, since it feels like they just release DLCs and never fix bugs (see Stellaris). Age of Wonders 4 is surprisingly bug-free even with the DLCs and is a lot of fun, which is why I'm giving it a good rating. I've never tried it online, but apparently it doesn't work very well online either. However, if you want an offline 4X game with virtually no bugs...

Price line + bands by tier:FairPrice history via IsThereAnyDeal.
The lowest price on record is $24.99, set in September 2025. It has been discounted 25 times in the 3 years tracked here, typically at 35 percent off, with about 6 weeks between sales. Today it is at full price. The last sale was about 8 weeks ago, and on this game's rhythm the next one tends to arrive within 6 weeks.
On value it sits in the top 10 percent of its genre. Among the games that feel like it, Overlord™: Raising Hell ($9.99, scores 66) beats it on value, while it beats Age of Wonders III ($29.99, scores 57).
Steam's global achievement data says about 1 percent of players ever finish it. On a 19.4-hour game, that is a lot of paid-for hours most people never see. It sells extras on top of the sticker price (cosmetic); the score docks it lightly for that.
