“One more EA abandoned. One more under the wing of Microprose. One more game with false advertisement. One more with a false roadmap. One more scam.”

“Well i should have waited before buying this but it's okay as long as they develop it”
— a player, Steam review · 61 hrs played“I love this game in its concept and I want it to succeed. Guys, for the love of God please listen. This game has so much potential, but you're killing me.
