    Because of lots of features, realism, uniqueness in its genre (political simulator), the game CAN'T be discriminated because of bugs and a terrible UI.
    There's no other game offering the same political experience: you can manage almost 150 different countries with any government type, you can manage also singular units in territories, make alliances, change any law, conquer nations,    Because of lots of features, realism, uniqueness in its genre (political simulator), the game CAN'T be discriminated because of bugs and a terrible UI.
    There's no other game offering the same political experience: you can manage almost 150 different countries with any government type, you can manage also singular units in territories, make alliances, change any law, conquer nations, manage national relationships, secret services and internal disorders... and so on.

    By spending for DLCs, you can also enable mods like God'n Spy (to use tricks and easily win) and Modding Tool (edit entire world scenarios and play them).
    I really love both.

    Democracy 3 would be a good "rival", but its conception is enough different (there's no direct interaction with the country, less options and more boredom).

    Why much people criticize this game?
    At first because it's much complex to get properly played, even for me.
    Then because the game sounds like a "reconditioned" product: still using Xvid libraries (in 2017?), graphic look is outdated (especially menus), many options are confused and some dialogs are difficult to get understood.
    Regarding bugs (as of 6.30 patch): screen tearing, crash after almost an hour of gameplay, slow UI under certain circumstances, infos disappearing.
    Also some imprecisions (my town is replaced by another one in a wrong position!).
    Games like Power and Revolution should be constantly updated with world and scenarios enhancements/bugfix.

    Like other reviewers said, Everism needs to build from scratch a better and almost bug-free simulator.    … Expand

    The game has MANY bugs and they did not even bother to search about the countries, for example: in Portugal the district of Faro is together with the district of Beja and the district of Évora.

    Power & Revolution, also known as Geo-Political Simulator 4, is a unique game that allows the player to be the head of state of one of more than 150 countries. Unfortunately, like the previous versions, it has an awkward interface and has many bugs.

    Politics are a cumbersome topic for a game. But on top of that Power & Revolution tries its best to push you away. The interface is plain ugly, the consequences of your actions and decisions are vague. And on top the devs weren’t able to decide if they want to go down the serious or the joking path. You will need more than patience to fathom the depths of this newest iteration of the geopolitical simulator.
