No instructions, just press buttons across 7 screens that all effect each other and try to work out how so you can maybe survive more then a month or 2.

You were killed by the mafia! Do not buy this game, it is exactly how Serpent describes it in his review. For further context: There are literally no instructions simply because the 'interconnected decision-making' approach follows no logical pattern whatsoever, so I can't imagine the creators could even write instructions for it in the first place. (Funny how they can't even provide an example of how to properly play the game in their own video.) Notable features: - Investing in reducing crime (although the game simply says "invest") legitimately raised crime and it resulted in the first message. - Only two choices of government: republic and monarchy. - Only two methods of controlling industries (if you could call them that): private and state-owned. Side note: For some stupid reason the military starts as privately-owned. - No customization of your flag or country name. - Ovemaga (rival nation) starts with 400,000 troops and you only start with 100,000 (Fine for a challenge, but for the first(?) country really?) - Gameplay appeal of peeling potatoes.

Let's start with the fact that I am an accountant, and I really love to pore over charts, this game is my paradise! With one click, without bureaucracy, I can start a war! Or collect taxes! Or extinguish crime in the country! My wife, to be honest, doesn't respect me much, but playing this game I feel my importance!
