Pax Ruthenia

After watching the recent Russo-Ukrainian War, I became interested in Ukrainian politics and played this game, but in conclusion, I was [b] [u]very disappointed[/u] [/b] with this game. Rather than making players play a leading role in politics, the game [u] forces players to find "appropriate answers" [/u] for each event in every national focus routes(pro-European, pro-Russian, and nationalist fascists), and players should passively find the right answers. Otherwise, players will lose a presidential election or be impeached by the parliament, or the capital will be occupied by protesters and so on. And the game is over. Even the events are repeated over and over, so the more you play, the less interesting you get, and basically the overall UI and variables are "unrealistic, not political, not economical." When I played the game many times, I finally found the successful answer and what-to-do pattern and eventually I could finish the game successfully, but this process made me very angry. Also, the English translation was terrible, but I won't criticize it because I think the developer did his best. However, I won't say it's the worst because it's an indie game. To put it positively, I'll say it's a game with potential for development under the assumption of elaborating the game. And I think the political situation in Ukraine itself is well-reflected in this game. Nevertheless, I don't recommend it to anyone who wants to play political-simulation games in general. If you're patient enough to play this game and waste your money and time, try it.
