What Steam players say

Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.

✦ AI summary

Empire of Sin has a fun core concept blending turn-based tactics with gangster management that appeals to XCOM fans, but players consistently complain that combat becomes tedious and repetitive, with lengthy battles that drag on without fast-forward or auto-resolve options. While some enjoy the early game novelty, most feel the gameplay loop grows stale quickly, making it feel like a shallow XCOM reskin rather than a fully realized experience. Players suggest waiting for a sale rather than paying full price.

Tillahınız gelse Atatürk gibi adam çıkaramaz soysuz barbarlar, gelmişler bize medeniyet öğretip, yüzyılın adamına soykırımcı iftirası atıyorlar. Ulan it sürüsü, siz afrikada americada hindistanda milyonlarca insanı soykırarken biz yönettiğimiz türlü coğrafyada hangi ulusa sizin ettiğiniz zulmü sizin yaptığınız soykırımı biz ne zaman yapmışız. Herkesi kendiniz bellemeyin. Paradox you are going to apologize

I thought this was going to be fun until I went into combat—then I immediately REFUNDED it. The combat experience was incredibly boring. While I can’t remember exactly why, what I distinctly remember is the feeling of how lengthy the battles were. Every fight dragged on forever, draining all the excitement out of the game for me. If only there was a fast forward button or an auto resolve mechanic.

Fun game, some of the bugs are a touch annoying but gameplay wise it's really fun! If you like XCOM & gangsters, you'll love this!
Not recommended Sep 27, 2026
It’s fun at first, but eventually you’re just doing the same ♥♥♥♥ over and over. Once the novelty wears off, it starts feeling like a ♥♥♥♥♥♥ XCOM with a gangster skin. There’s a good idea here, and I did enjoy it early on. It just doesn’t stay interesting. Running a criminal empire shouldn’t get this boring.
Not recommended Sep 25, 2026
As someone who loves turn-based tactical games, I bought this specifically because it was a Paradox Interactive title and ended up enjoying a 20+ hour experience. However, despite the fun I had, I am changing my review to negative. Following Paradox Interactive's disrespectful stance toward Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, I will no longer support any of their games or products. A proper apology to the Turkish community is the bare minimum required before I even consider looking at their titles again.

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
