Gerrymander Madness is a free VR experience. It worked on my system, looked ok, played ok, sounded ok. This software was designed for a museum environment. The rooms looked nice. Needs more time on the clock. I didn’t see how to subtract or shrink a district’s borders. The controller scheme needs work.

I live in North Carolina and i am well aware of all the Gerrymandering that has been done to all the Voting districts in the state. This program might help educate others of what political dirty tricks have been done to the state citizens. Both parties have been and still are guilty of this.

PRINCIPIA: Master of Science

PRINCIPIA: Master of Science

Summary

A rather simple game with a huge potential. Overall, it is great now, but if the devs are able to improve on the concept by introducing more scientists, fields of science, and perhaps more locations/academies, it can become truly amazing.

What works

1. You can pick one of about a dozen scientists from the era of enlightenment, and guide him throughout his career. You choose what to concentrate on, you can study, attend lectures, conduct experiments, compose scientific papers and much more.

You can’t tell this is a outstanding game, but it is amazing. BGM, graphic, system especially this theme is rather KOEI than Paradox. It reminds me about my PSP and the mighty Daikoukai Jidai IV.

I really want to see dlc for this game like more scientists, more theory, more universities. I think there still be a lot of system improvement and details can be developed. Such as more countries can have different budgets to invite scientist or build better universities and labs; a interdisciplinary research systems; relationship between professors and students etc.

The Cold War Era

The Cold War Era

If you have an itch for a Cold War themed game, this might scratch the surface. And by that I mean it’s not a complex, grand-scale type of game, but a rather simple, yet fun and engaging little battle of world dominance which can be played in a single session. In fact it doesn’t even have a save feature, so if you want to go all the way make sure you have an hour or two to spare. It plays sort of like a board game, you start with an equal score in January 1950 as either side (US or USSR) and you have to manage and juggle your resources and instruments (like spies) to influence and obtain new countries which add to your score. The game ends in 2000 when the side with the higher score wins.

Pretty basic gameplay, but its a captivating time sink none the less. Definitely worth a fiver.

Read the manual before playing, it’s simple to pick up if you’ve done that.

Fate of the World: Tipping Point

Fate of the World: Tipping Point

Written on May 16th, 2019

This has been a guilty pleasure of mine for years. I’ve played it on and off, and since it’s turn based sometimes I can even play it while working on projects. You take control of the GEO and do your best to fix the world from an impending environmental disaster. It has so many factors that it’s insane to juggle them all, but that’s what makes the game fun. It’s one of those games where it’s good to watch guides or read a guide to get the most out of it, and if you’re okay with that you’ll have a great time. You can still mess around with it yourself and see what works, but there are many little sub factors to the game that have to be just ‘tried out’ sometimes. We don’t all have the time for that so guides are a godsend here.

Fate of the World is a one-of-a-kind educational game that asks the question: what would you do if you were an immortal, all-powerful dictator whose primary mission is to stop global warming?

Your resources are limited. Do you focus on reducing emissions as quickly as possible, or do you start by building infrastructure to adapt the world for a changing climate? Which technologies will you invest in? Do you horde the world’s resources for the developed world, or do you impose extra taxes on the developed world while investing heavily in education, infrastructure, and medicine for the developing world? The game even allows you to consider the darkest of options to deal with overpopulation, such as poisoning people to make them infertile, or introducing a man-made virus to kill off the population directly. It’s not a one-dimensional game – there are a number of different strategies and technologies you can apply to win.

It is a good collection of a lot of flags and banners

from states and organisations worldwide.

The saving function of the flags in the PNG picture

format shows a good quality.

In addition there are some informations about some

Entertaining, comprehensive, and educational game, though it’s underdeveloped. It has potential to be great, but needs some more work to get there. I recommend it if it’s cheap, but I ask the creator(s) to improve this game, or they won’t get better ratings.

Basically, there’s a reason this game has “mixed” reviews, but it’s still a good game.

Good Morning, A.I.

Good Morning, A.I.

“Good Morning, Jude. Initiating calibration on fifth generation human rights.”

Choose your words carefully, the A.I. will cling to each one as you delve deep into politics, economy and morality. Your student’s values and perception will be defined by your discussions with them. You’ll have to resolve apparent contradictions between the answers you’ve given and see the physical manifestation of your powerful learner change in tune with their evolving personality.

“We just need to hold off cyber-attackers for 422 nano-seconds before we can seal access protocols. That’s where you come in.”

Pirates, hackers, anti-AI activists will try to break into the quantum world of paradoxes in which the A.I resides. Design defences to withstand attacks across multiple simulatenous states of existence, using a visual interface looking remarkably similar to a puzzle or tower defense game.

“Heya’ bot-boss. How’s the cutest dystopia-bringer of Western Europe doin’ this mornin’?”

Professional controversy is bound to mingle in your personal life. Choose what friendships you save, who you’ll romantically pursue and how Jude handles the power in their hands. Who will you keep besides you when it all ends?

“In hindsight, it makes sense that we got here. But we didn’t suspect th- Aw, man, reached my word limit for today. We’ll chat again tomorrow if- [User Muted].”

Your decisions can lead to many potential fates for Amsterdam, implemented by the A.I at the end of your tutelage. Multiple playthroughs allow you to explore different relationships and to find over 30 different outcome variations for the city and many more for its characters.

This game is being developed with the support of the Creative Europe Programme - MEDIA

Political Animals

Political Animals

I’m an ultimate newbie here, but here’s my experience with the game so far:

1. Customization - I’m very particular about details, so I really, really liked customizing every bit of the traits, skills, and weaknesses of my Lion and staff (my favorite so far is Eduardog the Preacher) and my platform. You also get to choose the length of the campaign, starting funds, and difficulty of your AI opponent. (Since it was my first game, I opted for the shortest campaign, the highest amount of funds and an easy but corrupt AI opponent.)

Enjoyable Experience!

Won my first campaign on Winter Island by a whisker! Didn’t quite figure out the scandals, but my Wolf of Baker Street had me covered with his deep pockets!

There’s a lot of information to absorb initially, the depth is kinda all there in your face right at the start.

It’s still manageable, the icons and neat UI help tremendously.

I like that there’s stuff to strategise right from the initial setup.

I was curious if certain character traits might synergise well, or be better suited to certain maps.

Citizen of Rome - Dynasty Ascendant

Citizen of Rome - Dynasty Ascendant

I would not recommend the game. Seems to have been abandoned. And any feedback on historical inaccuracy of the game has been ignored. Visual style is fun and nice.

The reality is that it is a super addictive “mobile type” game. Which is why I have racked up so many hours in it. You can play it anywhere, at any time. And you can just open and close it. So it’s ideal for killing time while waiting for a stream to start, etc.

But. The fact remains. It’s woefully factually inaccurate. And for things that would be easy to fix, (e.g. Consuls could only run every 10 years, you can run every year in the game - women can have jobs that were exclusively for men, women can also go for education that was exclusively for men in ancient Rome). The only way to make any upward social mobility is through the annual betting activities. Which is quite a hack to be honest, because when you have played the game for as many hours as I have, you can actually tell which sequence of results you will be getting.

First impression:

This game needs a major fix. The randomness to it is out of control. Lazy programming seems to have just assigned ranges of behavior that consistently contradict your own strategy. Any game designed so that you can put in an hour of work only to have everything fall apart because of a dice roll is poorly designed. If I want to sit on my floor and roll a 10-sided die 400 times hoping to never roll a 1 lest I should become the book of Job, I can do that by getting a die out of my old box of Risk and wasting my time on hope.
