Microsoft won't recognize my phone number. When I try to make a new account with that number, it says I have an existing account using that number. Try to make a totally new account just to play this stupid game, and it puts me in an endless loop of matching card pictures to prove I'm not a robot. Can't even get past Microsoft's terrible sign-in system. 0/10.

Firstly, a warning that development on this game appears to have stopped for the foreseeable future. So what you see is what you get, meaning NO WORKSHOP support (despite it being promised). On to the game:

The game is a decent simplified version of EU4 without many of the features, but also without a million expensive DLCS. There are no siege mechanics, which means marching into an unoccupied province will capture it. The UI can be buggy and annoying, and there is no fast way to build multiple province improvements. The AI intelligence leaves something to be desired, and there is a marked lack of flavour for the nations and no events to speak of. This game does have population and economy mechanics which can be improved to raise more soldiers at once / make more money from individual provinces, but it doesn't let you do anything interesting with the populations like Victoria 2 does.

Essentially this game is a poor man's EU4. Good and cheap enough to scratch the Paradox itch, but not good enough to pour hundreds of hours into like EU4 or Vicky2.
I give this game 6.5/10. If the developer ever included workshop support, siege mechanics, and modding tools I could bump it up to 7 or 8/10, because this game has incredible potential.
