What players think
The recurring themes across 154 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
- While the name of your superior "Joseph Steel" might make you think of a certain other man from the 30s, the game is actually set in the 1980s, with him being more of a stand-in for Brezhnev & Gorbachev, being a conservative who reforms the country later on with a campaign for younger bureaucrats, the protagonist Francis River being one of them.
With lackluster visuals and hand holding, the game didn't engage me.
Theme by theme

Ranked by how many sampled reviews mention each topic. A topic sits in a column by what reviewers said about that topic; the percentage beside it is how many of them recommended the game anyway. 2 more themes were each raised by fewer than 4 sampled reviews and are not shown.
