 Europa III Not So Good January 7, 2009
This Game IS a bad one i must say, Its more like old school way with taking turns. Its a ok game when your bored but its very complex to play. You must play for hours to get the hang of it. The graphics aint bad.
 My husband loves it. It's like complex risk the game December 22, 2008
He always liked Risk on the ps2 but now he loves this game because it is more complex.
 A very challenging game for the seriously strategically minded. September 22, 2008

This is not a game for the casual game-playing public. If you think Civ4 is complex and challenging, EU3 is not for you. On the other hand, if you are a serious armchair general/dictator looking for a grand strategy platform, this is the best and latest from the studio that also produced the excellent Heart of Iron series.
As can be expected for a game of this genre, the learning curve is steep and the time required is long. The gameplay, however, is deep, broad and long-lasting, so to each his own.
EUIII - Review June 20, 2008
2 out of 3 found this review helpful
Paradox Interactive makes Grand Strategy games. Emphasis on Grand. If you plan on playing a PI game, you'll be playing for days, if not weeks. And EUIII is definitely built from the same mold. If you're familiar with Civilization, then EUIII is a lot like that, only even more unforgiving and complicated. There's about a thousand things happening at once, except very very slowly. It may take you a game or two before you start understand enough of it. It did for me, and I read the manual through first. That said, it's incredibly engaging and allows the player to take a myriad of actions in response to any single action. Even if they have no idea what the outcomes of those actions will be.

I was disappointed with this game. The graphics, while improved, really got in the way of gameplay. Also, the gameplay has changed to the point where I have to go through tedious tutorials to learn how to play. I figured it out, but there's just not engaging like the first two games were. Also, I highly recommend the game Victoria. While I think Paradox is a great game company, nobody's perfect. They have unfortunately fallen short with this one.
