What players say

92% of 11,121 reviews are positive · 87% of 86 in the last 30 days

Players most often praise the detailed political world, writing, and difficult decisions that make governing feel consequential. The main complaint is that paths can feel rigid or opaque, with limited ways to address problems outside scripted proposals and outcomes that sometimes seem disconnected from the available information.
