Our take on Power & Revolution 2020 Edition
Players may bounce off the management interface once they encounter the game's large action set and interconnected national systems. The shift from choosing a scenario to tracking budgets, legislation, diplomacy, populations, infrastructure, and military activity creates a substantial learning hurdle.
