Addicting gameplay loop with satisfying rewards.

Finished the game on PS4 when it came out. The new updates here is enough for me to replay it all over again.

CANT. STOP. PLAYING.

Despite its flaws the gameplay still holds up.

Ori and the Blind Forest was such a great game an along my top games of all time. I never expected Moon Studios to top that with Will of the Wisps. These games are masterpieces and must be played by anyone of all ages, and of all types of gamers.

I will be reviewing this as a newcomer to the series. First off, I've never played a grand strategy sim game, the closest I can think of is Civ VI which I casually played a while back. I haven't been a fan of those types of games because I was put off by the steep entry to learn and the even deeper learning curve as well as the somewhat lack of direction.

I've watched and read reviews about CK III and thought I'd give it a shot. I have to honestly say, that Paradox did a great job in making the game a whole lot easier to get into. I have to commend the UI of the game as well because it shows you all the most important stuff without cluttering the whole screen and also enough for you to understand what's going on. It's one of those games where they modernized it to attract a wider audience whilst not abandoning their core fans.

The tutorial is enough to get you started but you still have to watch tutorial videos online to get a grasp of most of the game's mechanics. Since I was used to more the more popular action oriented games I didn't think that CK III would hook me so much that I want to keep on playing.

Overall, I am sold on the series and I'm now looking forward to new games by Paradox (i.e. HOI 5, EU 5, Stellaris 2) which would undoubtedly be modernized as well. Now, I just have to deal with having to put aside my backlog games again.

Made me stop playing factorio for quite a while.

Don't let the cute art style fool you. This is one amazing game. If you love stardew valley, i'm sure you'll love this.

A great game from a great mod. It's a good thing valve made a standalone game. This is like a birth of a new kind of genre same way battle royale was born. I'm expecting hundreds of knock-offs of this genre but I hope valve cements this game as THE game to play. I tried the autochess origins on mobile made by the original developer of dota auto chess, it's a great game but I cannot forego this game for one it has better graphics, better cross-platform support, better social communication and being owned by a huge company like valve, I can only imagine the support it's going to get.

A must have for any RPG lover out there. I can see myself playing hundreds of hours here. Definitely worth the sale.
