I have to say, discovering Cossacks was like rewinding time back to childhood. Here's a game that has all the trimming a grown boy needs: A bunch of colorful and historically accurate powers of the gunpowder-era Europe, just before all those pesky 1848 revolutions. A sense of romance and violence blended nicely together. Ore mining, farming, OCD hoarding. Cannon, ships, muskets! Even drums to keep them marching infantry all in pace like.

Love the mechanic to be able to quickly conquer some buildings and peons. this change the dynamic of combat and base defense. Hope to see a Cossack 4 someday ... don't need no fancy graphics, just good a game and playability. Need work on map generation and diversity. ( * EDIT ) Maybe rework the bonus for nations and info accessibility ?

Great game, great graphics. Worth the money and an amazing upgrade from the original Cossacks: Back to War. Unlike other remakes, remasters, etc, this one actually makes the game better other than just better graphics. Gameplay is actually quite improved and smooth. The rework feels as great as the original.
