I just read the Polygon review for the first time. I feel bad for gamers who may believe what they read and avoid this game. It seemed pretty clear that the reviewer either had no idea what he was doing (RTFM?) or simply despises slower paced strategy games. Either way, as someone who is moderately interested in the genre and has played this game for about eight hours now, I feel this review is absurd, false, and actively harmful. It should not be read by anyone, let alone be the basis of a purchasing decision.
