About this game

Lead an entire nation to salvation – or destruction – in a post-apocalyptic world set beyond the year 2075. With a simple swipe of your finger, left or right, you’ll be able to decide of this Nation’s destiny, taking hard decisions about different quests and problems, that will be brought to your presidential attention. Be careful though: leading has never been easy and it will be even more challenging in a similar world. Something mysterious has thrown the whole future humanity in a deep confusion, causing a continuous stream of events as wars, illness, famine. No one seems to recall what started this all, no one seems to know anything about the odd events that keeps involving the planet, no one can explain why you seem to rise every time someone tries to keep you down.

So be careful, and think long and hard each and every decision, because nothing happens by chance. Every single event might help you reach your final victory, but at the same time it could be the reason of your failure. Who will be your friend, and who will be your enemy? Hard to say in such a complex world filled with betrayals, aliens, bionic beings and ancient myths. What’s done is done, and you can just play your cards as well as you can in this inevitable race against time.

In-App Purchases:
The game is completely for free.
You can reach each and every ending without buying anything. Any purchase will be optional and, besides helping you a little bit along the game, will be a sort of donation for me.

FAQs and suggestions:
• How can you play? Press on the card and swipe it slowly left or right, so you can read the two possible options. Decide what choice you want to make, minding the four statistics. Keep in mind: every choice you make will have future consequences.
• Do I have to get to a certain year to end the game? No, you can reach an ending in any time! You just need to make the right choices and have a little bit of luck.

The storyline is well-written and interesting. There is a lot of characters but only roughly 1/3 of them contributed significantly to the story, the 2/3 are only for gameplay and basic story proggression. Gameplay is choice-making, but you need to think about your choices and you need luck. It gets repetitive after a while. The icons can be confusing to newer players, but should be understandable after some playing. There is one soundtrack and it just repeats, very repetitive.

A fun little game with completely optional microtransactions. I've played through once and unlocked one ending(out of four). The story is decent so far, with different consequences and characters to discover. More impatient players might be turned off because everything restarts after finding an ending, but it's a minor complaint. Also, the developer occasionally breaks the fourth wall in the game(hint: tea) and offers you a helpful perk in exchange for watching an ad.

I haven't played this game for quite a while. And I decided to download it again as I would like to discover more endings. For me, it's fine if I had to restart my progress, as the decency of the game is when you go through its plots and have different endings. I'd like to express my gratitude to the dev(s) for being a precious fragment in my adolescence phase 🥰
