Demise of Nations is a turn-based grand strategy game where I take control of a nation and try to expand my territory, manage resources and outmanoeuvre opposing powers. The game focuses on long-term planning rather than fast reactions, so I have to think several turns ahead and consider how every military and economic decision could affect the rest of my campaign. The biggest strength for me is the strategic freedom. I can decide whether to concentrate on building my economy, expanding aggressively or strengthening my existing territory. Different situations require different approaches, and I like that there is rarely one obvious way to handle a campaign. A strong position early on does not necessarily guarantee victory later. The military system is also satisfying when everything comes together. I have to move units carefully, choose where to attack and think about defending important areas. Taking territory can be exciting, but expanding too quickly can leave my borders vulnerable, so I constantly have to balance aggression with caution. Diplomacy adds another useful layer. Other nations are not simply targets waiting to be conquered, and I have to consider alliances, rivalr…

My first run of this game is my entire play time.... 11 hours and I won, but those damn ghaul bastards hid out in the top right of the map and as I was just about to take em out and get 100% of the map taken over the game gave me the win when I had more than half the map since the begining. I feel robbed good game but I was robbed.

I really didn’t enjoy Demise of Nations. The game feels clunky, slow, and not very polished, which makes it hard to stay engaged. The interface is outdated and confusing, and the gameplay quickly becomes repetitive instead of strategic or exciting. One of the biggest issues is how limited it feels—there’s only one free map available, which gets boring very quickly. If you want more variety, you’re forced to pay, and even then the experience doesn’t improve much. The multiplayer system is also frustrating. Both players need to own the same maps to play together, so if one person doesn’t have them, you simply can’t play. This makes it unnecessarily restrictive and takes away from what should be a fun, social experience. Overall, the game feels unfinished and not worth the time or money. There are far better strategy games that offer more content and a smoother experience.

I HATE turn based games, BUT this one is good. I like the huge amount of maps you can install, mods, the IOS support. I play it once-twice a week, Its's one of my top three comfort games that no matter what I can always come back and have a goof time with like Worldbox god simulator and DSS 2.
