Playing cooperative Crusader Kings II is like sitting down with your friends to play Let's Pretend. It's an endless gold mine of interesting stories, amusing decisions, and surprise events. The learning curve is very steep as far as normal game standards go, but there are lots of good learning resources online, and once things click, the experience is very rewarding.

CK2 is enjoyable when played solo, but play it with friends if you can. You'll never know how entertaining it is to tell the story of your character's pilgrimage to Mecca until you actually do it. Leave your son under your friend's tutelage and get ready for some horror stories about how he's bringing up the child. This game serves up the drama like nobody's business.

It's amazing and very, very entertaining. Highly recommended.
