Charming political text adventure game with a very promising beginning. If Episode Two contiunes along a similar vein and actually takes into account the choices in Episode One, then this was a worthy purchase. A lot of potential to be a gem hidden in the rough Edit: Sequel never came out so its a worthless purchase.
Great game, entertaining. Unfortunately it ends after the first episode… so no resolution… 90s nostalgia guaranteed!
Pretty interesting. Shows how shady politics is

It's rather short, and a little rough around the edges (particularly the arbitrary precision of decimal numbers stuck out like a sore thumb), but the story is interesting and I'm looking forward to Episode 2 ... except it's been over a year since this first episode was released, and there's no sign of the developers having updated the game's website since announcing the upcoming release of episode 1, so I'm getting kind of pessimistic over here. I'd say buy it, but not at full price. 5 Euro is a bit much for 2-3h of gameplay, even accounting for some presumable replay value thanks to multiple choices.
Good start to a game. Looking forward to future installments.
Leaving this review because it's the least I can do after getting this as part of a $1 bundle which is literaly a steal even for just one episode of this game. There are very few games based on politics and most tend to the statistical simulations vs the push and pull of who-you-know and who-to-help/gain future favor from horse trading that is politics (as opposed to policy) and this is the first/only game I've seen that does that and one that offers a pretty decent story and characters to boot. $5/episode is about the right price for the game given the current presentation level but I'd say the core game and ultimate the enjoyability of all is worth $10. This is a developer worth supporting. Understandably the first episode is more about building one's network and accumulating one's favor and the politicking takes a back seat by comparison which may disappoint some if they want to go straight to the GOP vs Dem swinging but we'll hopefully have future episodes to look forward to for that. This has become one of my most anticipated episodic series that I'm praying wil actualy get finished and am anticipating, if only so my now very valuable "interweb" stock will be useful for something lol. On that note, that's my only real criticism. It was much more fun and involving for me to be part of that dotcom ride vs the politicking One last thing, the life coach makes WAY too much money the way it's currently set up. She seems to be able to make more than any of the lobbyists which does seem a bit out of whack lol
Gioco interessante con una storia avvincente non vedo l'ora di vedere come continua nel secondo episodio, consiglio di aspettare e pernderlo in sconto invece di pagare il prezzo pieno che è eccesivo per le poche ore di contenuto che offre il primo episodio.
This game is really cool, not alot of games like out there.
it is super fun
Had fun love the turn based combat https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLMN5EMF4GlR_LN0ou5WxWGf4-gzbToLzj&disable_polymer=true
