-- "Imperialism 2 is an engaging game. I daresay its a
great one and will very likely be my vote for the game of the year.
If they can address the little things, it will be an awesome game.
Now let me get back to it! I have Swedes and Portuguese that need to
be taught the hard lesson of exactly whos in charge in the New World&ldots;"

-- "if you're a die-hard strategy fan, you've got to add this
game to your library. It looks good, it plays good, and the time
frame that it's set in is very different from all of the other game
on the shelf."

The
Adrenaline Vault's
review is long and detailed.
Wargamers
-- One of the most detailed reviews around.
Gamespot
-- "What few quibbles we had with the original seem to have been
answered in this well-thought-out sequel. Imperialism II looks
more challenging, easier to play (especially multiplayer), and more
replayable than any of its "conquer the world" competitors
that are likely to release this year."

-- "While many designers focus on dazzling us with 3D graphics
and real-time action, it's good to see strong games like Imp 2
showing what can be done with a bit of original thought and experience."
The
Mac Gamer's Ledge -- "...the game was always challenging
even on the lower difficulty settings, and because of that I found it
quite addictive. Often I found myself caught in the
just-one-more-turn syndrome, which is always the litmus test for a
game's rating."
Macreactor
-- "The game play is just as enjoyable as the original
Imperialism, if not moreso. The addition of new challenges, a more
complex AI which [slightly] irritated me a couple of times, when I
was allowing my armies to rest a turn before invading two provinces
in the New World (Those Spaniards took the provinces right out from
under me!). The improvement and expansion on existing features, like
exploration and the more complex technology web, make this a good
fun-to-play game."
VideoGameReview.com
-- reviews contributed by players. "... this game has hit the
perfect key, the combination of units and resource management fitted
in a finely tuned turn-based strategy game."
