Publisher's content notice
Gameplay depicts a globe representation of the Earth populated by nations potentially disputing territory. Army units are shown as 2D icons that capture enemy tiles and engage in combat with enemy units. Combat is represented by 2D icons frozen together with animated shapes as battle intensity indicators. No blood, gore, realistic violence, or personal harm is shown (only icons disappearing and color-coded tiles changing ownership/occupation). Realistic war effects on demographics (e.g. casualties distributed across military-aged pops) are presented as statistics (population pyramid, numbers) that impact demographic change.
