Realpolitik II isn't for everyone. Its complex and deep strategy requires players to commit to studying every aspect of the game in depth—to an almost obsessive degree.
That being said, Realpolitiks is a really delightful game to have for on-the-go play, on a console that I would never have guessed would end up with something like this on it.
Realpolitiks really wishes it was something as grand as Europa Universalis, but in reality, it's more akin to the Tropico games or a souped-up Football Manager. You have a lot of systems to manage, but the choices you make within these systems aren't as open as we'd like and you're left spinning countless diplomatic plates without the agency befitting...
In Realpolitiks the player can rule an entire nation: the product is an ambitious 'strategic game', maybe too simple and shallow.
A broken game, without anything good and imbued with a tragicomic approach to international economy and politic.
