Pretty interesting looking bundle over at humblebundle:

https://www.humblebundle.com/tycoon-simulator-bundle

Is Democracy 3 any good? I'm interested in Making America Great Again.
Yes, it's fun, although I did not play it extensively.

I'm mainly interested in OOTP17, so I think i'll get the first tier of the bundle.

L.

Playing it a bit. So far:

- Raised import tariffs to high levels
- Gutted health care spending and replaced it with a tax breaks program
- Increased spending on border protection. Sadly there's no way to make Mexico pay for the wall :(
- Gutted environmental, labor, etc... regulations
- Started a large infrastructure building program
- Lowered income tax and corporate tax (sadly the game doesn't allow me to do it only for the upper brackets  :hmm:)
- Implemented high racial profiling policies. Stop and frisk!

The economy and the state finances are tanking, but my popularity is growing. MAGA  :showoff:


I've seen it before. I'm sure this same guy makes lots of simple games.
Its a decent idea in theory but its kind of silly. Legalising weed increases crime? err....

The game is just changing numbers in an excel sheet. But it's fun for a bit.

Yesterday I tried to save Spain's economy and was assassinated by the capitalists 3 times, and by the socialists once. Rough.

I recommend turning off the assassinations.

It can be done?
That's good. Both times I tried it happened to me. Feels like a big realism break.

Is there any actual difference playing different countries?

They also seem to have a sale on at the moment. Watch Dogs 2 is 33% off - it seems the game is far better than its maligned predecessor.

I've heard Arcanum is cool. Are the others worth it?

Steam sale starts in a day or two. Probably

With the Quest series the question is how much tolerance you have for bullshit puzzles, being able to dead end yourself, or being killed in nonsensical ways.

Thanks for the reminder. :cheers:

Had a quick look, not anything that jumps out at me, but the '12 Labours of Hercules' are all on offer, so I might as well get the rest of them, me being a skinflint.  :bowler:

Liep

so is this one of the new boring steam sale that stays the same until the end?
