Overthrowing the government is so hard – you have to go outside, talk to people, shout slogans – let’s face it, it’s just too much damn work. But now, you can take political power all from the comfort of your livingroom couch. That’s right, Independent developer Eversim, who have specialized in simulation-themed games, have released Power & Revolution , the fourth version of Geopolitical Simulator for PC.
In Power & Revolution, the player can apparently play as an opposition group in any country of the current world and try to overthrow the powers that be democratically…or by force. Awww yeah!
Power & Revolution’s simulation engine encompasses all the current re-world conflicts that have been mapped and configured with their different countries, groups and forces present. As their leader, the player can try to find a resolution to the conflicts using different strategies. Here’s a chance to try solving all those issues that you read about in the news.
The game incorporates geopolitical and economic data that is current as of January 1, 2016, as well as about twenty new scenarios related to current conflicts (Syria, Iraq, Libya, Ukraine, Nigeria,…) and other topics (Revolution!, The Struggle for Independence, US Elections 2016, The French President’s Wedding, US Engagement on Global Warming, and more). Yes, the French President’s Wedding is a vital current issue, ok?
Tactical and strategic elements have been developed for urban conflicts (demonstrations, revolts, guerillas) as have the use of new tactics such as drones, satellites and espionage.
Now in case you haven’t heard of Geopolitical Simulator before, you play as the political leaders (chief of state, president, king, prime minister, political party or illegal opposition heads) of one or more nations that you choose at the start and take action in various domains: economic, social, military, internal and foreign politics, environmental, cultural, transportation, etc. All the countries of the world are represented along with their own variables and operations. This game includes hundreds of actions for the management of economics, commerce, military strategy, construction, espionage, political simulation and manipulation.
