Europa Universalis 4

Played a Hungary game, conquered most of the Carpathian and  the Balkans. Vassalised Ottomans.

Played as Tunis several times. Tunis vs Castille and Portugal was nice. The best one was when I conquered Maghreb and a chunk of Iberia. Castille lost, and got into a personal union with France. In the end, I owned the (outer ring) coastal provinces of Iberia (e.g., Portugal, Aragon, Asturias, Navarre area). The inland of Iberia was owned by France. It was very awkward.  Stopped the game there because got bored, it was just a peace-war-peace-war cycle until I eventually get all of Iberia.

Played as Morocco several times. The best one was when conquered Maghreb and a chunk of Iberia. This time, I captured the right side of Iberia. The left side was owned by Portugal and Castille. Stopped the game because BORING.

Played Hejaz and used lots of cheats - formed Arabia, conquered land from Tunis all the way to Persia.

Started Naples game but never conquered anything. Maybe because I hated using ships to transport troops during wartime.

Enjoyed the Hungary game more than the muslim countries.

Played a Malacca game. Formed Malaya. SO BORING. There are no threats anywhere. Captured West Malaya, Greater Indonesia, and was working towards Moluccas. No lucky nations around this area, just steamrolled everything.

Overall, gameplay is too long. So boring. It's just a peace-war-peace-war cycle until you become a big blob. Then, every nation fears you.  You can role-play as a nation and as a dynasty. But generally, it is a waste of time. Uninstalled.
