This game almost seems like it's advertised as a single player title, which as a board game-to-video game adaptation makes very little sense. Plus, it's clearly marked as having multiplayer on Steam, but sometimes features between Steam and GOG differ.

So I'd like to know if local multiplayer exists on the GOG version or not. All things being equal, I'd prefer to get it here, but if there's no local multiplayer, I'd definitely pass in favor of the Steam copy.

Okay, thank you! That's exactly what I wanted to know!

There's no real point in lan because it's local, but I understand where you're coming from.

If you want to play online you make csg account right there in the game.

Hi there,

I have a question:

Do I need to create a "3rd-Party Account" to play this game in SP ?


I never played this game, and on steam store-page it's stated"

"Requires 3rd-Party Account: CGE Account (Supports Linking to Steam Account)"

Having a LAN/Direct IP option means the game will remain playable in multiplayer on different computers, even if the game servers go down, which will happen sooner or later.

Nowadays, multiplayer games with a LAN/Direct IP option have become a rarity, with problematic and foreseeable consequences in the future. The reason for this is clear, the advent of gaming clients such as the Steam client and Galaxy has made possible the massive tracking of gamer's habits. And tracking means money. I will not push too hard on GOG's Galaxy however, as it remains optional, and Steam's, Ubi's, EA's, Blizzard's, Epic's, are more to blame.

In the same way some DRM systems are being irresponsibly phased out, rendering some old games simply unplayable, in a few years from now, more and more multiplayer games will become unplayable, unless they have a hotseat option, which has its drawbacks, and can't be done for some games. I personally tend to favor the "one screen per player" formula, but that's a matter of taste...

Thank you very much! :)

OK, thank you for your answer and clarification!
