More about Suzerain
Critics scored it 81. Players sit 11 points higher at 92 percent, which usually means a game that plays better than it reviews.
Steam's global achievement data puts about 2 percent of players at this game's ending achievement. On an 11.6-hour game, the hours short of it still count in its price per hour. 6 of the 800 Steam-purchase reviews sampled here come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written August 2023 to November 2026. That is fewer refunded reviewers than 8 in 10 paid games this site has sampled to the same depth, and among the 2,872 games in its genre sampled this deeply, 2,255 have a larger share. Inside the two-hour refund window, 72 percent of the 423 reviews written there were positive, against 92 percent overall, and those are 4 percent of everything written about it.
The main story runs 11.6 hours. Doing everything runs 37, 3.1 times as long.
Valve rates it Steam Deck Verified, and at 11.6 hours it is short enough to finish on one.

What players say
Do you want to be president in a post-Soviet Balkan-expy country? Then this game is for you. Fight with your wife, watch your vice president descend into alcoholism, and make excrutiating budgetary choices that will always make some of your ministers mad and somehow make your economy more unstable. Thanks to this game, I know for sure that being president is one of the worst jobs on earth. 10/10.

My political ideas are correct and everyone else is stupid, that's why I should be allowed to be a dictator.
Ana senaryodaki atmosfer sizi gerçekten bağlıyor ve sorumluluğun getirdiği o baskıyı, bunalımı hissettiriyor. DLC'yi henüz oynamadım ama ana senaryo gerçekten çok keyifli.
