How it feels
A satirical power trip where you juggle the absurd demands of ruling a banana republic with tongue-in-cheek political scheming.

What players say
Players are split: some find the core gameplay bland and lacking agency, with information hidden in tedious submenus, while others enjoy the dictator fantasy once they learn basic economy rules from external guides.
