Let me start out by saying that I have a degree focusing on Political Science and have worked in the sector.... The Socioeconomic policies do not reflect what happens in the real world, more what someone idealizes how they should work. The Human Element is not well represented, such as in situations where a positive outcome is seen, but the electorate is unhappy due to outlying political/social/etc beliefs (e.g. the goal is accomplished, but not HOW the populace wanted it accomplished, etc). The Political system is rather simplified and this makes a Democratic Socialist approach far too easy and ignores key psychological responses that have been observed in the real world when certain situations arise. After playing for a few hours, using demographic knowledge of game developers, and knowing the political beliefs behind certain policies, I easily beat the game with a Social Democracy....which appears to be the ultimate point of the developers. Comparatively, I attempted a few other forms of government approaches that have been historically stable in the real world, but those forms were not nearly as friendly in the game world. As this is intended to be a political sim attempting to replicate the real world, I cannot recommend this. However, if this were a model that honestly stated its intent to show HOW a Democratic Socialist contruct can best be made and why it is best for them, in their view, as compared to other options...Then I would say that it accomplished its intent.

My biggest complaint is that there is no way to win the different scenarios if you choose any other political path than "progressive liberalism."
aka a progressive pipe dream. no rewards for cutting taxes, reducing regulation, or otherwise doing things which actually improve society.
Basically play socialist democracy or lose the game.
Just buy Dem 3. Better in all ways.
This is a very simple and minimalistic government simulator type game. After playing about thrice, you learn all the mechanics inside out, and it becomes boringly easy to "win". It has a very linear type of policy making panel, with far left, or far right, and everything in between. Everything has a linear and predictable effect, and all-in-all, it becomes very tedious. It is fun for the first few hours however, I won't deny that. But it simply has no replayability. Games like Masters of the World have a much better and in-depth mechanic and policy implementation. But if that's too complicated for you, then this game is just fine. Grab it on sale since this is an old game, no point paying full price like I did for a game that's just about mediocre. Overall Rating: 6/10
SUPER!!
Universal healthcare is always OP, regardless of the simulated country or buget.
If you have the demo you have the game.
This game is a fun political simulator. Only complaint I can think of is that it encourages you to go to extremes on all the issues and doesn't really encourage moderation (basically, if you're going to anger a certain part of the electorate anyway, then the game doesn't discourage you from going all the way). I've also heard some complaints that this game has a left-wing bias but I don't buy that. You'll get some bad events if you go full-blown socialist to the point of alienating your capitalists.
