Fort Sumter: The Secession Crisis
A very faithful implementation of the original board game, which is a Eurogame by design with a historical ACW theme tagged on it. The game does have a decent AI and can be played solitaire as a result. Statistics on your own profile is available and so you can track your own performance vs. the AI. The only downside is the program still has a bug, freezing the solitaire game play from time to time and it seems Playdek was not aware of the issue. The multiplayer is easy to set up and game with score, measuring how you fare against others. However, there is no world ranking in the game, and different level of AI there is not. You can get notification in email when it is your turn in a game with another. A chat room is available but most of the time it is dormant. There is an alternate mapboard to give the game a variant, non-location look but I doubt people to use such a boring map. The gameplay is abstract and there is no manual inside the game or here on the Steam. You have to download it from the boardgame publisher GMT, as long as you are aware of it. This is absolutely a minor for the newcomer as the game itself is abstract and you are quite probably knowing what you are doing in the first few games. Once you get a hang out of the system, the game is smooth and quick to finish in 10 to 15 minutes. Overall, Fort Sumter is a game of tile-placement competing for control of the areas on the map. Score: 6.5/10.

I’ve been on the road a ton in the past couple of weeks and played the hell out of this. In about 60 offline games and a half-dozen online games I haven’t noted any gameplay bugs or rules/cards implementation problems as noted in another review. The recent AI bugfix improved the AI, and it’s competent enough in a mechanistic sense, but it' still a bit weak against experienced players, especially as it relates to setting things up in terms of the long game and Final Crisis. To be fair, that’s something the many human players don’t grok until they’ve played a while (which I have as an owner of the board game).

Last Day of Rome
A promising game, but so much bugs after only a couple of hours ! This game is clearly not finished and broken. I would really like to play this game, but at that point, it’s more a pain than a game. Too bad.
Here are some. There are probably more:
- the biggest bug : manual battles! I had to Alt+F4 so many times because it seems to freeze if I move the mouse too fast over an unit while some are fighting (not sure about that). Or when I’m attacked and have defense buildings, the game freeze after the IA made his attack. Really painfull. This is one of the major bugs to my point of view.

New game in my library - Last Day of Rome
This is a military-economic strategy about ancient Rome since the 2nd century AD.
In short: we take command of a people within the borders of Rome. We will have to use both tactics and strategy, and
diplomacy. Therefore, it is possible to gain respect among their own people and, for example, to raid or launch a campaign against the 1st Reich xD
Actually, the system is nothing new, we control any country in Europe, we build buildings and
infrastructure in their regions, that is, we focus on the development of our army through the study of new technologies.

I received this game in part of a bundle with Evil Bank Manager (which I did enjoy).
If I had paid for this game separately, I would be upset, which is saying a lot considering it’s $1.99
There’s no actual point here.
Sure, your’re supposed to select actions to raise funds and overthrow the government, but it really makes no difference what you do eventually you win the game. In 1.7 hours I have beat the game three times (simply because I was missing one achievement and that was bothering me) and the end result was no different regardless of if I thought out my actions or just clicked through everything.

Fate of the World: Tipping Point
Written on May 16th, 2019
This has been a guilty pleasure of mine for years. I’ve played it on and off, and since it’s turn based sometimes I can even play it while working on projects. You take control of the GEO and do your best to fix the world from an impending environmental disaster. It has so many factors that it’s insane to juggle them all, but that’s what makes the game fun. It’s one of those games where it’s good to watch guides or read a guide to get the most out of it, and if you’re okay with that you’ll have a great time. You can still mess around with it yourself and see what works, but there are many little sub factors to the game that have to be just ‘tried out’ sometimes. We don’t all have the time for that so guides are a godsend here.

Fate of the World is a one-of-a-kind educational game that asks the question: what would you do if you were an immortal, all-powerful dictator whose primary mission is to stop global warming?
Your resources are limited. Do you focus on reducing emissions as quickly as possible, or do you start by building infrastructure to adapt the world for a changing climate? Which technologies will you invest in? Do you horde the world’s resources for the developed world, or do you impose extra taxes on the developed world while investing heavily in education, infrastructure, and medicine for the developing world? The game even allows you to consider the darkest of options to deal with overpopulation, such as poisoning people to make them infertile, or introducing a man-made virus to kill off the population directly. It’s not a one-dimensional game – there are a number of different strategies and technologies you can apply to win.

Comrades and Barons: Solitaire of Bloody 1919
Fun Solitaire game with a couple of offbeat game mechanics relating to the story of the gloriously messy situation in the Baltics in the aftermath of the Bolshevik Revolution and the end of the Great War. Unique setting provides for some fun story elements that are integrated into the gaming levels. If you like Solitaire, give it a try. If you like Solitaire with a unique theme, try it as well. If you like to learn more about the Baltic Wars of Independence and the personalities and insane heel-face-heel turns involved, play as well.

5.5/10
I initially snagged Comrades and Barons because 1) I dig playing Solitaire games while I’m listening to music and 2) I dig the Russian Revolution-era aesthetic of the game. The game tells the story of a communist uprising. There are 6 different locations, and each location typically consists of 3-4 battles. Each battle consists of 10 levels, with the exception of perhaps the first introductory battle. Each battle has its own set of objectives you must complete in order to “win,” which might include something like attaining a certain card combo (perhaps removing 7 cards from the board in a row) or flawlessly completing a number of levels (perhaps removing all cards while playing 5 different levels). Unfortunately, there isn’t really a way to seamlessly mesh Solitaire gameplay with fighting a war. Although the cards themselves were thematic and the in-level obstacles were things like barbed wire, the “story” is told through simple in-game text boxes. I read the first few, but it was difficult to maintain interest when I was given no protagonist to follow and was unable to connect my in-game actions to anything war-related.

Card game with simple mechanics where you have to choose one path or another, not much of branching here. Anyway it is enjoyable, especially for the price author asking for it. It also could be a lot of fun playing with friends and family.
I would love to see author adding more randomness and third-party(nature?) playing against you or more challenging events when player progresses into the game, to make things worse.
