Critical Acclaim

* “Through a combination of a choose-your-own-adventure-style visual novel and a Paradox-esque game, you have to pull the young republic out of a terrible recession while dealing with entrenched, corrupt political factions and a looming border conflict.” - PC Gamer

* “The press will lie. Parliament will ask you to sign bills with misleading titles. The people will inspire a song called "My Electorate Are Stupid Pigs". Your principles may be your strongest weapon or your downfall. This is politics. This is Suzerain.” - Rock Paper Shotgun

* “The nuanced dilemmas it presents, set against a detailed and convincing backdrop of mid-20th century history in a fictional world, make it one of the most fascinating political strategy games of the past several years.” - VICE

Ratings and reviews

First class game. Absolutely the easiest to learn controls but intestense story and gameplay. Best geopolitical game I ever played. But I can't buy the full game. Please include ways to play full game for free like waiting for say 1 hr after an imp desicion or (I hate to say it) ads. You could even make free to play players work harder. Absolutely want to play but can't afford to buy.😭

This game is absolutely Phenomenal! The Story telling is great, and can really express just how important some decisions are! The OST also does a great job of displaying the stress that being the "democratically elected president" of Sordland can be! This game also offers various paths - these paths offer various ways to handle things, and every little speech could have massive ramifications if you don't watch your words. If it was up to me, this game would get editor's choice. 10/10.

It's a very detailed text based game. The plot is heavily dependent on your choices and it generally runs well. However, the dialogue options are sometimes unclear and I end up making choices that don't align with what I thought it meant completely, and once or twice it bugs out and no matter what I pick, the characters respond the same way and the conversation does not match at all.
