Description
Have you ever wanted to be President? Or Prime Minister? Convinced you could do a better job of running the country? Let's face it, you could hardly do a worse job than our current political leaders.

Crime, unemployment, national debt, terrorism, climate change. Have you got the answers to the problems that face western industrialized nations? Here is your chance to find out. Democracy 3 simulates the motivations, loyalties, and desires of everyone in the country.

Each voter's income is modeled, along with their levels of complacency and cynicism. This is the most sophisticated political strategy game ever created.
  • The most complex political strategy game ever made!
  • A sophisticated neural network simulates thousands of virtual voters.
  • A unique user interface allows you to see a staggering amount of information about your country.

Too easy

I'd give it 3.5 if you could give half stars. I love the idea of this game but its just far too easy. I've played all three democracy games and this one just seems like a nice reskin with a few extra policies. I'd hope the devs will introduce more randomness to the games mechanics in later patches but I wont hold my breath. I played the UK for 2 hours, after those two hours I had resolved all but one national issue, wiped out national debt (and had £1tn surplus), had wiped out religion and maximised funding on a space programme and was winning elections by an 80% turnout. This was at difficulty sliders set to 115%. My first game. Make it harder devs.

Don't buy

Hardly any gameplay. Not particularly fun. I paid $25 on steam, save your money.

Very nice and polished game!

I really like these kind of games, and have played a few. This, so far, is the best, most thorough and polished one of it's kind. It's simple, but very very complicated, LoL. You can tell that the devs put a ton of time and effort into this thing and I for one and so glad for that.

How Quickly Will You Compromise Ideals?

Can you balance a budget, manage a Cabinet, appeal to voters, and maintain your principles? It's not as easy as it sounds, this game is great for people who want to see how easy & often innocently intended it is for politicians to do horrible things.

Awesome game, no complaints

Surprisingly fun and enjoyable. Multiple replays with no complaints. Education on a basic level as well, and was especially impressed with the different country options. As an old fan of Floor 13 I felt this had a similar feel with the restricted interface and frankly loved it. Good to see games that actually rely on intelligent design instead of just throwing all the budget at graphics
