Not much explanation of mechanics, but quite fun regardless Save our unions, comrades!

I began playing this game a little while ago after Crisis in the Kremlin, which was one of my favourite games and I was just as happy exploring this game, which I think is another historical masterpiece. I would %100 recommend this game to any history nerds out there, keep up the good work Kremlin games, you guys deserve so much more recognition.

A pretty complete simulation game with an amazing number of outcomes. Always fun to play but tricky to master. Maybe more information / tutorials could help, the mechanics feel a bit overwhelming for beginners.

Aug. 2024

it is quite the fun little alternative history strategy game. I'm not sure if this game is still being developed in terms of future content but what improvements I would like to see is the ability to turn western nations socialist whilst the game is still going, unlike getting Italy to turn communist at game end. Maybe even a game mode where it's set earlier allowing time for more options to be played out. But overall this game is very neat and as a history buff who loves the ideas of alternative history its just the type of game I love. Highly recommend.
