Find a multiplayer game fast?
Is the community on steam big enough to find a multiplayer match in under 5 minutes?
Thinking of buying this game for online multiplayer only

it depends if your going straight for a game match you will usually not get one in 5 min you can get lucky and find on that starts in a 30min or faster or you could get unlucky and get stuck waiting for days, if you go in the discord it will usually be way faster but i dont think its very likely to get on in 5 min. you are way more likely to find a game fast if you have mobile and on the discord because that is the fastest way

answer is no, the game is almost dead in some timezones and the Multiplayer is utter ♥♥♥♥! ive never seen so lazy and bad implemented multiplayer in decently played game. Time limit is useless, no penalty for not making it in time, no incetive to finish game, you can just leave and your opponent will have no idea, because there is no online indicator, no chat, not even emoticons no means of communication. Cant even see how many players are online, the lobby systems is absolute ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. Devs are lazy incompetent idiots. Killed such a good concept. Only thing thats good on this game is stylized graphics and the simplification of Civ, other than that its laughable small game made by incompetent college student, this game should be max 1$.

there is a option for not making it in time you can click the times up button and you can skip their turn or kick them from the game. There is the official discord for amazing comunication. The devs are not a huge company they are a small dev team so they cant update super often. The lobby systems are good and are pretty easy to navigate when you find someone on the discord to play with. and Why are you saying this game is bad if you have played it for around 50 hours?

still works
