PRINCIPIA: Master of Science reviews

Early access review very good game, I look forward to seeing what it will give once finished. To argue a bit (I only played 3h for now): positives:-turn-based game system-posibilities of evolution whether in research, career or celebrity-there is a real work on scientific theories-addictive and simple to understand even for English. -tutorial-the IA. The other scientists wander on the map and do their own actions and research. -no bugs (I played only 3h) negative points: there are a lot of things to say about this game but it is in early access and inexpensive so it makes sense-the tutorial is fine but it only explains 1/10th of the game , we are quickly lost and it takes time to find what we can do in the game. -the fact of being able to realize only one action per turn. -the AI that sometimes decides to Pierce you unnecessarily. For example, another scientist challenged my theories 5 laps in a row while the Academy rejects their criticism every time. -not enough indications-repetitive and not fast enough on the phases between the towers. I will continue to follow this game hoping for updates and a French version (although I do not believe too ^^)

Early Access Review Simulator of goat and intrigue between scientists in the 2nd half of the 17th century:) The idea is to make discoveries, earn fame and at the expense of her points to build a career and climb to the top of the scientific world. The Winner is the first to write a treatise on the gelecentric structure of the solar system. In practice, even as president of the French Academy of Sciences, it is not always possible to protect their discoveries, and envious, trying to disprove the old discoveries or just insult and take a couple of moves, so a pond. Pluses:-Relative freedom of choice of actions: it is possible to engage in discoveries (experiments and theoretical reasoning are connected, but it is possible to lead them in different order), to improve the skills of training in universities, to earn lectures, To buy all kinds of scientific devices for the laboratory, to travel within Europe, to build relations with other scientists (to send them money/bribe or vice versa, to insult and to put in doubt merits), to improve a career. -Learn the history of discoveries of this period Cons:-Tutarial is simple and does not reveal all aspects of the game-the Music is primitive and quickly bored-Not transparent game mechanics-not always clear because of what the academy rejected your discovery-No duels to kill A competitor/dependant, you have to wait for his natural death or at least re-election at the academy to push through some discoveries. For such money a normal way to kill a couple of three evenings
