Worth noticing
Its plates treat attackability, round length, alliance dependence, and interface complexity as field marks.

Field notes

The key begins with questions about whether other players can attack what a player builds, then branches through settings and preferred pace or play style. The editors say they spent three weeks with each game on an ordinary account. The six plates also distinguish social and mechanical details: Call of War rounds end on victory points after two to four weeks, while Grepolis ties movement across islands to transport and alliance coordination.
