How it feels

A turn-based text-driven political simulator where players manage economy and diplomacy under historical pressure, with choices leading to multiple endings.

What players say

Players describe a short game that can be finished in one sitting, but the lack of manual saves can cause frustrating restarts after reaching certain endings. Reviewers split on balance, with some noting the commissar mechanic feels poorly timed and a late-game food purchase limitation feels punishing.
