About

Regime

Features
Read full description

Regime is a text-driven political crisis game. You are in charge for a full term, not as a cartoon villain or a puzzle hero, but as a leader juggling trust, money, control, and the country’s place in the world. Each turn presents a situation drawn from a large library of cases: cities in collapse, currency crashes, cyberattacks, election disputes, alliances breaking, and more. You respond with concrete choices. Your Public Trust, Economic Stability, Global Standing, Resource Pool, and Control Level shift accordingly. Let any of them hit zero, and your time in office ends badly. Before the crises stack up, you name two advisors, military, science, economics, or diplomacy, who quietly bend a subset of outcomes. Random events can interrupt a turn with a supply raid, a mass protest, a scientific leak, or a diplomatic insult, so no two runs feel identical. The inaugural address sets the tone. The final decision shapes what you leave behind: centralized power, devolution, a handoff, or something harder to undo. When the term ends, you get a verdict and an ending that reflects the path you took, not a single “correct” win, but a coherent consequence of your tradeoffs. If you like serious “what happens if I actually choose this?” simulations, sparse prose, and replaying history under pressure, Regime is built for you. Features - Dozens of distinct national crises with multiple responses each - Advisors that subtly change outcomes on the choices they care about - Random events layered on top of the main case deck - Multiple ending types tied to your stats and major decisions - Designed as a focused, readable experience—no ads or busy visuals required

You wake with no name and no past. Just a dying fire in front of you, and the cold pressing in from every side. Feed it. Forage in the dark, hunt what you can, craft what you need, and hold the cold off for one more night. You won't last long. That's the point. Everburn is a survival incremental about starting over. Every life is short, and every death teaches you something. You come back a little stronger, a little sharper, your fire catching faster than the last time. The wall that killed you becomes the ground you stand on. Death by death, you push deeper into the world. And it's a real world. The whole game is text: words on a screen and a fire that spreads wider the longer you survive. You climb out of the woods into the valley, feel your way through the crystal caves, and reach colder, stranger places the deeper you go. Line up your actions and watch a life run itself. Automate what you've mastered. Close the app and the time is banked, so you always come back with something to spend. And it ends. There is a last chapter, a real one, and then you're done. The first chapters are free. One purchase opens the rest, and it's yours for good. No ads, no subscriptions, ever. How far can one life take you, when you've got as many as it takes?
