One of the hardest games I've ever played, since the original X-COM game. In a good way, that makes it addictive. There are some missions I still haven't defeated, but rather than getting frustrated I keep coming back to, time and time again.

Challenging game that gives a great overview on the key issues and current existing solutions to global climate change.

It's a very satisfying and challenging game to play, nothing out there quite like it. Couple of downsides are that you need an unofficial patch to fix a late game solution (which the game is "unwinnable" without) and some actions don't make sense (Japan got stuck in a permanent economic super depression, nothing fixed it), but aside from those it's pretty good for the price and being an almost 14 year old game

Quite difficult to get into but all the more rewarding when you beat a mission for the first time. The game expects you to experiment and lose a few runs until you figure out how to even get to the end of a scenario without being terribly overwhelmed with disasters. But you'll find out what the cards do. What the interdependencies are. Which techs unlock which buildings and open which paths. Regional strengths and weaknesses. All in all a quite well researched game that managed to predict (in some sense, depending on which scenario you play) the future so far.
