Date of Review:  Mar 4, 2002
The Bottom Line: Europa Universalis II is the most expensive game patch in the history of PC gaming.
Review: Strategy First came onto the gaming scene a few years ago with a few really bad titles. Ever since then, its games have been improving, and sometimes actually contained a few original concepts. The company became the fastest growing publisher of...

Perfect concept, terrible execution

Date of Review:  Apr 2, 2001
The Bottom Line: Once again, a game with a great concept was released before the hardware requirements and interface were refined.
Review: Waiting for the game
Europa Universalis has been creating considerable buzz on European gaming message boards and news pages. However, it entered the US market almost unnoticed, immediately placing among second-tier games with a starting price...

Much More than an Update

Date of Review:  Apr 13, 2002
The Bottom Line: The Balance of Power for 400 years of Europe is open to you with plesent graphics, adjustable sound, and nearly unlimited gameplay. Slight flaws, but truely a gem.
Review: Not About Eye or Ear Candy:

Europa Universalis II may look much like its predecessor, but there's only so much you can do to improve on something so good, interface wise. As plain as it might look, it really is rich in colour (which you...

People are you mad? Why didn't you buy this game already?

Date of Review:  Jun 16, 2004
The Bottom Line: it's just a great game for strategy lovers
Review: Europe Universals is an intriguing game, not only does it have great strategy thinking that is combined in it, it also gives you an extremely good historically correct view of the world at the ages of 1419-1820. This game published by Paradox (and...

One of the games which will hopefully change the industry.

Date of Review:  Sep 23, 2002
The Bottom Line: With its high replay value, easy modification, and sheer size, it is worth every penny. If you are looking for an epic historical game, this is the one for you.
Review: When I first read about Europa Universalis II back in December 2001, I thought there was no way that it could be as good as some of the reviewers were claiming. How could a game simulate the events of 400 years and do it well?

But I was...

Risk on a Grand Scale

Date of Review:  May 3, 2001
The Bottom Line: Although this game could use some patches its a great game. It will keep you playing till the sun rises and then some.
Review: Europa Universalis is a realtime strategy game that challenges you to lead your European nation through various historical scenarios or over a 300 year period from 1492 to 1792. The overall concept if you are playing the Grand Campaign is similar to...

Western Civ 101

Date of Review:  May 19, 2001
The Bottom Line: Hands down the best game in its niche; though complex to learn, it offers a realistic look at all aspects of European nation building between 1492-1799.
Review: There are few computer games that allow players to guide countries from the 1492 through to the French Revolution. While Imperialism II, released several years back, captured the colonization / domination aspect, merging it with a strong economic...

Steep learning curve, but worth the effort

Date of Review:  Jul 1, 2001
The Bottom Line: Buy it- A great, challenging game, with a depth of information that I've never seen before. Great replay value with many countries, scenarios to play.
Review: Europa Universalis covers the period from 1492-1792, in the format of Real-Time Strategy (RTS). You take the helm of a major European nation and compete with your rivals for trading rights, provinces, and conquests in the unexplored world.

Rule the World in Real Time

Date of Review:  May 9, 2001
The Bottom Line: Great teaching tool for European History! Purchase it if you are looking for a long, hard, historically accurate strategy game.
Review: First-Off this game is not for everybody. If you are looking for the next Real Time, Mission Based, Quick Clicking Game, then stay away. If you are looking for a political, commercial, and military simulation of the world around 1492, then purchase...
