I want my money back

This game is very slow and it’s so laggy and if I would’ve known if it would be this bad I wouldn’t of bought this game so I want my money back

Best political game

The game is great if you are interested in politics but it is very one sided. It is very hard to make any money when you are leaning more towards to the capitalist and conservative direction. I also find that assassinations are too common. In real life, this doesn’t happen so please make it a bit more realistic on those
