It's simple with simple mechanics yet (similar to Democracy 3) it's really easy to mess everything up. Basically, you have Dilemnas that pop up every turn that require your attention, generally, "give X amount of money for Y." You also have a military which you can move around the various territories in an attempt to quell rebels and bandits but be careful not to overexert yourself. I learned very quickly that doing the right thing wasn't always the best thing for my country and I've had to replay a few scenarios to get it right. I'm actually kind of sad that the game doesn't have more scenarios to play through but for 5 bucks the content is still pretty fun. Plus you'll want to replay just to do better as a President each time. I recommend this for Democracy fans.https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=07QXdMNPYZ8. This isn't a bad game, but on principle I can't recommend it. It\u2019s too short, and it makes the game extremely unsatisfying for short amount of enjoyment that can be gained from it. I'd like to think that they might add content to the game with a update, unless its some miniscule dlc. One thing that concerns me is the fact after doing a awesome job on one play through I was presented with an advertisement for another game by the same company on a website that is foreign to steam network. This is really upsetting because at this point it felt like i paid five dollars for what could of been a phone app or a browser game that, even though I\u2019ve paid fair and square for the game, is presenting IN GAME advertising directing to a website off the steam network for more cheap looking games. If they don't update this game more content, that isn't a dlc or expansion I might just get a refund on the grounds that this game is too small to be anything satisfying. Or if my review gets taken down than I'm for sure going to try and get a refund.. An Interesting little game where you must be a leader of an African country, chock full of all the same problems in the region AIDS, Rebel Groups, Famine. Will you be the great uniter, or an evil warlord interested only in what goes into your own pocket? To select production simply double click on the region. http:\/\/www.twitch.tv\/agrippamaxentiushttps:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=J9q9GMIGzog. After several scenarios in which i had not the slightest clue what i am doing i started finally to get a grip. The game reminds me of Tropico & 3rd Millenium. It's rather a fast paced game if i don't care to read all the texts included. Though it has only 4 scenarios to choose from the own decisions dictate the further ongoings, which increases the game's replayability. I have fun playing this game especially because the scenarios go for only 13 up to 16 turns. & i like it also that it's not placed in a fantasy world but relates to reality. There is one negative point, i have to use my mouse to navigate because the game doesn't react to the navigation with the Wacom Pen i usually use. I would also prefer if the game would be less text based & use instead pictures to illustrate the happenings, because the rather coarse design is quite appealing.. I already asked for a refund. The game is short, outcoming to your actions is easily predictable and after the first play you basically know what's going to happen. I got no satisfaction out of this game.. Basically a Democracy clone with a tiny bit of lackluster graphics and without most of the changeable things.In fact you move a few tanks and engineers over the map, improve some infrastructure.. or not.. doesn\u00b4t really matter much. Main point are the "dilemmas" which some of the different "leaders" come to you with each round, and how you handle them. The resolutions aren\u00b4t always logical or even seem buggy once or twice.. but yeah. There are no elections... no bigger results or demographics besides a few basic ones like "stability" and "income" naturally.I finished one scenario (in not even ten minutes?).. got a few hundred points as "result" and thats that.Conclusio: The "President for a Day" games are not promising much.. but deliver even less, at least for me. Maybe for people who just want some easy clicking in between it\u00b4s fun enough, also the price isn\u00b4t too high. But i find it just boring .. and wasted potentialAlso if you have to get one, get the other one "Floodings" instead of "Corruption", Floodings had at least a bit more fun imo.Point Scale 3\/10. Cool cencept but poorly excuted. I truly hope the devs can learn from their mistakes and develop the game machanics a bit more. It's very difficult to understand what is happening and information seems hidden beneath layers of poorly drawn animations. Better animations might make the game alright enough to give it a thumbs up dispite the lack of gameplay. However it just doesn't warrent the full price. If they want more than 99cents for this one don't waste your money.Again, very cool concept that could be salvagable, however the current state lacks even an options screen to play the game in a window.. Recommended for individuals yearning to be the leader of a nation but otherwise refuse to do something about it other than through a click of the mouse.Also highly recommended for would-be megalomaniacs with dictatorial aspirations. Please go ruin a virtual nation instead of a real one.. The concept of the game itself is great, but from the red thumbs down I'm sure you can tell that I didn't find the execution satisfactory.As a speed reader I've gotten through three of the four scenarios in my forty five minute play time, and thus I'm going to imagine it would have taken me an hour to gotten through all of them. So it's President for a Day but only Gameplay for an Hour. But it's a little more than $4 at the time of the sale, so I didn't expect there to be a lot of content itself. That being said, time does have a large factor as to why I didn't enjoy myself. You see the game has a score system that ranks how you did in the little more than a dozen turns you're given, and I felt it actually hurt the game more than it helped it. Why? Because at the start you choose which leader you play as, with some buff attributed to them as well as a goal which gives 250 points should you complete it. To give a comparison, score from other sources (as far as I'm aware from my three scenarios) more often than not amounts to less than a hundred, and I'd guess that's if you do really well in other categories. With that I feel as though I'm playing Quidditch. Sure, I -could- do other things to help raise the score up, but ultimately it comes down to that goal.A lot of people will probably think that it doesn't have any influence on the game itself so I shouldn't complain, and I can't fault them. That being said there were other problems I had. If I pandered to a group as hard as possible, if I agreed with everything the rich and the military say, I obtained support in the 60s region, which only provides the first buff, though that is still useful. I don't even know if there's any buff from raising it higher than that because again, the game length is fairly low.And that's what it comes down to. This isn't a bad game, it's just a short game that leaves me feeling unsatisfied. I didn't feel a lot of weight to my actions, but maybe that's the point, life is hard in Africa and there's only so much one man can do to change things up. Anyway, it's $5 when the sale ends, you might find more enjoyment than I did, and feel it was a worthwhile experience. But I'd first reccomend getting an emulator to play Hidden Agenda on.(I encourage people to add comments, either in favor or even if you disagree with me, and if I have any extra tidbits to say about the game I'll probably add it to the comment section so that the review itself isn't a huge wall of text on what I would or would not add to the game). This is just a really short review and it will be completed in the future.Maybe it is not a real review and I give you just my shots about the game.The game is setteled in Africa and you lead a different country in the missons, which differ in their difficultiy - I think that the easiest mission is most \u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665 mission :) .Also you got a fixed time for every mission, e.g. 13 turns this is means you can just make 13 different moves with one army.I just wanted to give you a brief glimpse. I will extend the review after my breakfast.
