Demagogue vs The Alchemist's Study

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?
