Age of Civilizations II Gameplay Review
I'm playing Age of Civilizations II, a turn-based grand strategy game by Łukasz Jakowski. The game lets you control any nation starting in 1440, though the starting options can be customized. The interface features a lot of map modes, but they are difficult to scroll through and movement orders can be issued by mistake. Movement points limit the number of actions per turn, though this only becomes an issue with very large empires. Units can be recruited and moved, while buildings are placed to increase growth and research rates. The budget can be adjusted to produce more taxes, production income, or population growth. Research points are used to provide a bonus in several areas (population growth, administrative overhead, military upkeep) and unlock better buildings. Diplomatic options with other nations are standard (alliances, defensive pacts, sending insults or improving relations), and the AI is decent enough. Age of Civilizations II is more approachable than the Europa Universalis series, but its relative simplicity means there is less to do during times of peace as you wait for research to complete.
