Perhaps it's due to a complete lack of social services :lol:

Sorry, that was an easy one.

Start the game as Norway (or Sweden, I can't remember), release Jan Mayen and play as them.

Bide your time, then release the bears.

started a second game, and did better, until the civil war came and all of my troops stopped moving.

I actually bought the soundtrack on iTunes, and listened to it at work a few times. It's very relaxing. :ugeek:

Government reforms become available when gavel glows green in the politics box of the toolbar.

Image

Before enacting any reform you feel like, you'll want to find out which ones your citizens are more angry about.

If you hover over the reform, you'll get a tooltip telling you how much of the upper house wants it, and how much of the population wants it.

Image

You can also get a more detailed breakdown of the peasants reform rage via the "Movements" tab of the politics screen.

Image

This way, you can see that suffrage reform should be your first political reform, otherwise there will likely be rebels.

Boomers: The Game

https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2017/0 ... e-trailer/
“You play an aging CEO, stranded in a world he no longer understands, with a company that’s now a relic of the past.

“Upon discovering that online shopping’s destroyed his retail margins, ride sharing killed his taxi business, and video rental stores… are no longer actually a thing… it becomes clear that keeping the company alive will require drastic measures. He’ll need to modernize the business! Unfortunately, the modernizations he chooses are exactly those comically egregious practices!”
This looks like it'll be a riot. :lol:

Omg... This game looks terrifying :lol:



Apparently, you play as a cat burgler that's trying to rob the WRONG house... (I'd rather play as the homeowner ;))

Oh, you have no idea, the game learns from your gameplay style, so each time you break in and escape something new will come up to thwart your ability to do the same way again. No one game successfully will be played the same way twice, there will be a point in time where the game will best you. The question I have will be will you need to start over again or does this have the curse of being a "One Play" game.

In other words, once you finally can't beat it anymore... will there be other ways to play or is it start from scratch again?
