Key Features

Create balance between society and economics. While lockdowns suppress the disease, it will drive the economy into recession. Try to maintain the balance between society, economy, and epidemic control.
Establish social order. Continuous social discontent will result in civil unrest and protests. While some demonstrations just show society’s current issues, others will not disappear unless the player takes action and fix the problems.

Choose Welfare state vs free marketPlayers can choose either the free market with no interruption or the relatively free market while maintaining a strong social security system. Social support packages include free health care, unemployment insurance, and basic income.

What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
Players appreciate the core concept and find the game engaging, but are disappointed by limited content and repetitive gameplay that makes it feel shallow and easy to break. The main criticisms center on lack of variety between scenarios, simplistic game balance that allows trivial victories, and insufficient depth to sustain interest beyond an initial playthrough, though some enjoy the humor and character design present in the current build.
Taking for granted this game is in EA until Fall '21, I can say that while I really enjoy the concept of this game, the execution so far is pretty lacking This is mainly due to the redundancy of events & actions to be taken throughout each scenario, as well as all the cities being the same but with slightly different stats I like the concept, but it needs to be more dynamic to keep my attn once it's in full release by the Fall8 found this helpful
Well... Sounded like a good game but... yeah. 30 minutes of content. The dev decided that the only source of infection in the first few weeks should be outside conmections. So what happens if you block all travel the first day? You won in the first 25 days no matter what. Even with the hardest city + disease. Great base idea, horrible execution.1 found this helpful
The game is pretty fun with little naive jokes. I especially loved the characters on the front page. I hope they all become available soon. It's kind of addictive tho1 found this helpful
good game
