Reviews for "Create the Police State"
Meh… I like the concept of a game similar to "pandemic" where you play as a president, but if in pandemic it's clear why the destruction of mankind is the objective, in a game like this one the objective makes no real sense. A lot of things seem completely out of place, like the fact that the country start with 100% wealth, 100% security and 100% education, the fact that every law makes everyone happy or everyone unhappy, etc. Now back on the game objective… « If these laws are applied you win »… But a law enforcing discrimination, reducing freedom or prohibiting free speech is never the OBJECTIVE of a fascist government, but always a MEAN to reach that objective (huge wealth of an "elite", more power for a small group, etc). Such thing as an ant-gay law would never be only an objective and no government would risk doing something similar if it had no back up, if it was nothing but a risk. It is always to please the fascist part of the population and to give them more power. When your neighbour becomes your enemy you can't really organise yourself to fight the government. One last thing… « That one country is your ideological enemy thus you can't do business with it »… really… ?
A really good game that I cant win, it really is hard and needs a lot of thinking and still you might not win. I spend a lot of time on it I think its addictive and I think I would enjoy a bigger version.
I'm really surprised this has some actual strategy, I mean it looks so simple but is REALLY hard. nice job at making these
It takes a genius to take something complicated and makes it simple.
