Demomocracy

You take office in one of 36 scenarios — fictional nations (Atlantica, Veridia, Solaria, Novara, Helion, Krasnov) and contemporary anchors (France 2027, USA 2025, UK 2025, Germany 2025, Japan, Brazil, India, Mexico, Canada, Italy, Spain, Argentina, South Africa, Indonesia, Vietnam, Egypt, Türkiye, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, Iran, Kazakhstan, Poland, Ukraine, Nigeria, Korea, Thailand, Philippines, Australia, …).

20 voter blocs sit on the left rail. 189 policy levers sit in the middle, grouped across 9 categories. 30 stats read out the country's health on the right. Move a slider; the impact pills tell you which bloc you just won and which one you just made angry.

Strategic depth

• Political capital — every big slider move costs 1 capital from a pool of 10. Pick your battles.
• Strategic agenda — 3 milestones drawn at game start; each completed one gives +3% approval at the election.
• Named opposition leader — country-matched name, one of 6 ideologies.
• 12 policy synergies — carbon tax + renewable subsidies = Green Transition.
• Country-specific levers — France 49.3, US Executive Order, UK Statement to the House, Germany Bundesrat Compromise.
• Election campaign mini-game — a 4-decision puzzle: coalition, rally focus, tone, debate stance.
• Cabinet ministers as a power base — veto a minister's pet policy for 3 quarters and they defect.
• Treasury bite — deficit drags approval directly. A €5B hole costs you 9% at the polls.
• 75 multi-choice decision events with cooldowns and per-campaign caps.

Endings & replayability

• 8 high-profile scenarios have hand-written epilogues across 5 outcome lanes in EN + FR.
• 78 achievements persisted across runs.
• Daily challenge — deterministic UTC-date seed with a streak counter.
• Multi-slot saves, JSON export/import.
• Mod loader — drop a manifest.json into mods/ to add policies, voters, events, scenarios, achievements. Pure JSON.

Polish

• Full bilingual EN / FR, 200+ humor lines per main country.
• Color-blind palette, snappy mode, ambient music toggle.
• Letter-grade end-of-game report card, shareable as a Wordle-style text block.
