Democracy is a government simulation game. The player plays as if they are the president or prime minister of a democratic government. The player must introduce and alter policies in seven areas - tax, economy, welfare, foreign policy, transport, law and order and public services. Each policy has an effect on the happiness of various voter groups, as well as affecting factors such as crime and air quality. The player has to deal with "situations", which are typically problems such as petrol protests or homelessness, and also has to make decisions on dilemmas that arise each turn.

Democracy 3 is like a crazy fun political science experiment. You get to be the leader of a country, making choices on everything from healthcare to taxes. It's awesome seeing how your decisions affect the population, but man, keeping everyone happy is a tightrope walk! The menus can be a bit overwhelming at first, and sometimes the game feels more like a puzzle than an actual simulation. Still, if you're curious about how governments work (or just want to play political mastermind), Democracy 3 is a surprisingly addictive way to spend your time.

A fun way to spend a few hours, especially with friends or partners. The entertainment value seems to come from the entertaining ways you can fail, but it seems to be a bit disappointing that if you want to take the game seriously, the interconnection of things and the ways in which certain choices will effect certain parties are somewhat vague and nonsensical. The game is sincerely just raising and lowering number values, and ultimately, there's only so much entertainment value held within that mechanic.

I just want to do the most basic of things without being assassinated.

5.0 | interessante mas não possui nenhum valor de replay.

Nowhere near enough depth to achieve what it wanted.
