Hearts of Iron IV is a grand strategy game by Paradox Interactive. In the game you can play and guide any nation through the turbulent years of World War II. You pick a nation, select your startdate (honestly, everyone picks 1936) and start the game.

All right! I have no idea what i am doing. I've picked a semi-large nation with some potential (Iran). Alright. Let's jump in singeplayer and let start by boosting me into early fascisism. Great! I can declare wars!. Oh... Hey... Stalin! What... up...? What are all these Russians doing on my border? .... All right.... Non Aggresion... no...? Eh.... WELL, let's invade Afghanistan and Iraq. Guaranteed by the British Empire.... Oh. Let's see... I've 30 divisions... Russia.... between 400 and a 1000.... yeah.. Germany... could you... oh... what.... why... #BigBlueBlob happend.

All right....

Let's play.... The People's Republic of China... The one and only China according to... well.. China. Everything going goooooood. Boosted Commie in the Other-Not-Real-China.... Great they all rebel and flip to mee! Sweet! Japan has been kicked out. Yeah! Part of the Commitern! YEEEEAH. Germany, Italy and the other little nazi's in central europe? beaten! Let me just wait here for the Allies to deal with Japan.... Yeah... Still waiting.... K.... Lets nuke them! They are .... not surrending... Lets nuke them over and over again! YEAH. No...? K.... I have no navy so lets do paratroopers into Japan. 150 divisions of Japan waiting on the beach.... mmm

+ Great game
+ Can play as the good, the baddies and the little one's .

-For now: Allied access to enemy territory (aka, millions of allies defending Russia...)
-Peace conferences are to buggy
-Germany and Japan ai failing every time

Still worth the buy! If you like other PDX titles you will like this.
10/10 would join the Axis again
