What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
I picked it up during the Fall sale not just because the premise of kingdom building simulators are an underappreciated genre, but because the art style really does impress, even more so due to the fact that it's all symbols and unique characters being formed into art.
Gameplay mainly revolves around amassing bigger and bigger armies to conquer increasingly stronger nations via text control similar to old text-based adventures.

The interface is solid and retro like Sanctuary: Black.
Theme by theme
Every theme is scored by what reviewers actually said about it, not just whether they recommended the game.
No themes split opinion in this sample.
Ranked by how many sampled reviews mention each topic. A topic sits in a column by what reviewers said about that topic; the percentage beside it is how many of them recommended the game anyway. 5 more themes were each raised by fewer than 6 sampled reviews and are not shown.
