Ultimate General: Civil War is a very easy to get to grips with game, it doesn’t require too much historical knowledge to effectively play. Its controls are easy to use, they are intuitive and do what you want them to do. The artwork and graphics of the game are a treat and give off a decent historical vibe, the music is perhaps too cinematic rather than authentic, which works in some areas of the game but not in others. The gameplay is solid, there are very few hidden variables but the game plays how it should feel. However the gameplay objectives at times are hideously unfair, the game moves the goalposts frequently and this can lead to disaster.
