With my lack of experience surely this would be a perfect test to see whether Hearts of Iron IV is a little easier to get to grips with? So, if you’re looking for an in-depth article talking about the changes that Paradox have implemented since Hearts of Iron III look elsewhere – I’m sure there will be plenty of awesome guys and gals out there who can tackle that subject with skill, especially on the forums. Now onto its fourth game Paradox have put considerable effort into making this the most accessible title yet without losing any of the depth that fans have come to expect from the company. So what better time for somebody who has never played Hearts of Iron to step forward and try to lead a nation to victory? As a relative Paradox noob I reached out to the company and asked if they were interested in having the game reviewed by somebody who wasn’t familiar with their mechanics nor their famously convoluted interfaces. They also create and publish the Hearts of Iron franchise which takes Paradox’s now well established formula and slaps it into World War II. Creators of the newly released Stellaris, the Europa Universalis series and the Crusader Kings games they have established a dedicated following.

The grand strategy genre is dominated by one name: Paradox. Review code provided free of charge by the publisher.
