Elections: Every 5 years on December 31st your people vote. If your approval rating is under 50%, you lose and then it’s game over.
Six rivals are always on the ballot, one for each part of your approval rating (shelter, jobs, safety, basic needs, parks, healthcare). Your worst parts decide which rival walks away with the most votes.
Breaking news cards in the top right tell you 1 year and 1 month before the election how it’s looking, so a loss is never a surprise.
Win and get a gift. A reelection drops a random gift box.
“Term” replaces “Level”. The top bar now shows what term you’re serving (Term 1, Term 2, …) and counts down to the next election. The old level system is gone.
Running out of money is no longer a loss. The only way to lose is to lose an election.
Incidents now happen every 7 years (was 5) so they don’t land on top of election years.
Fixed Steam Deck interface issues. The game should now be fully playable on Steam Deck.
