This game is a simulation of the largest permanent construction site of our time (we assume that and did not research it for security reasons). For 14 years a new airport is being built in Berlin, which should have been opened already in 2012. Until today the opening has been postponed again and again. Why? Find out for yourself with this awesome and ultrarealistic game made by the biggest satire website in Germany "The Postillon"!

Have you always thought while reading the news: "How hard can governing actually be?" WELCOME TO DEMAGOGUE The satirical political simulator and roguelike strategy game. From a political nobody to the german Chancellor's office: start your own party, forge fragile coalitions, negotiate ministries, and pass laws. Whether you govern idealistically, pragmatically, populistically, or completely immune to advice is up to you. YOUR TASKS: • Build a party: Choose a name and color, and fight your way through elections. • Negotiate coalitions: Secure majorities, even when it hurts. • Pass laws: From a "butter knife ban" to tax reform. You dictate policy. • Manage crises: React to absurd events (what to do with a stranded whale?) and keep an eye on the Kebab Price Index. • Cut deals: Navigate between lobbying, corruption, and state finances. • Juggle your private life: Answer chat messages. Negotiate the particular political interests of your family and best friend, which directly influence your decisions. FOUR GAME MODES: • Campaign: The guided intro with a story. (Free to play) • Free Play: Govern for as long as possible and test how stable your political era really is. • Sandbox: Freely customize starting conditions, parties, and rules to simulate custom scenarios. • Duel: Challenge your friends. Everyone creates their own party, and whoever stays in power longer wins. Politics is rarely rosy. Most of the time, it's frustrating, messy, and full of compromises. Experience the dirty reality of holding power firsthand. How long will you stay in power? Will you hold on to your values - or will you use the tempting tools of populism?

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Demagogue at 5.0 against BER Bausimulator's 3.0. Demagogue also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 5 days vs fortnightly). BER Bausimulator's advantage is iOS requirement (9.0 vs 18.0). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. BER Bausimulator sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Demagogue sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Demagogue holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 1 and 4 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 96% of BER Bausimulator's written reviews are positive against 95% of Demagogue's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
BER Bausimulator ships an update fortnightly, Demagogue every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on October 8, 2026 and October 13, 2026 respectively.
