Oct. 2025

I enjoyed this game, but felt a little lost at times. Its hard for me to remember things and I couldn't quite understand what choices I was making, but I got to still see the effects, and had a good time doing it.

Sept. 2025

Great little game for the money. Very interesting and thought provoking to see how each decision affects the world around you.

Sept. 2025

I ended up causing the downfall of a bad leader, caused globalism for Novistan, meds got cheaper and my brother did one gig and was never seen again. But hey I got some yuri out of this

Aug. 2025

Only took me 53 hours to get the GOOD ending. Nobody got arrested. Nobody got deported. Nobody died. And I still got laid.

July 2025

A good game! Definitely very interesting and I appreciate the layers you discover after a few runs, though I do think the game lacks replayability considering the concept. I'm a completionist so I played until I got all the achievements, but I think for most people 2-3 run-throughs are enough to enjoy the bulk of the content. I will say that I bought this on sale and I probably wouldn't have bought it otherwise, and there are a few typos.
