Europa Universalis IV vs Social Wars
Europa Universalis IV
Europa Universalis IV is the fourth game in the award-winning Europa Universalis franchise. Similar to its predecessors, the game has everything you'd need to build your own nation from the ground up and guide it through the ages. The freedom in which you get to customize your giverning style, your nation and even your game is simply ridiculous (in a good way) and of course, the best selling point of this series is that almost everything is based on accurate historical references, be it a historical figure or an event. This time around you'll get to grow your nation over a much wider span of history, arrange royal marriages, form coalitions, support rebels in proxy wars and more. You can even cooperate with up to 32 different players to govern a single nation. The multiplayer mode apparently now has an improved chat and a new matchmaking system.Unfortunately, the major downside about this game is that the developers, Paradox Interactive, have apparently "sold-out" by adding in features that should have been in the original game into DLCs that players actually have to pay extra for, ending up spending over $200 for just a single game. Not to mention, many players have complained that the DLCs they release are priced at the same price point despite having progressively lower amount of content.
That said, the game is still an epic masterpiece and a worthy sequel to the Europa Universalis series, but the game's hardcore player base is admittedly not happy, and honestly, we wouldn't recommend getting this game unless you can get all of the DLCs dirt cheap... maybe like in a bundle.
Social Wars
Social Wars is a competitive, and yet social, MMORTS game that you cna play on Facebook. In this game, you are tasked to build your own operations base, scour the map for valuable resources, expand your territory, and amass a bunch of troops to battle enemies and complete missions. Naturally, you can upgrade your troops and buildings, and work together with other players in alliances.However, its gameplay is not quite the same as the MMORTS games that currently flood both the social media and mobile gaming platforms. You actually have to train workers to perform the type of tasks you want. The game doesn't have an open map either, unlike games like Stormfall - it is more like Clash of Clans in this respect.
Social Wars unfortunately closed its doors for a few years now, but if you're looking for other games that are similar to Social Wars, you've come to the right place! Check out our list of alternative games below.
