This game was a lot of fun. I was pretty bad at it, but it felt like it has a surprising amount of complexity for relatively simple input. The only change I would make is some way to speed up the part where it shows every country's drift 1 by 1. It was useful in the beginning, but by 30 years in it felt really long. But other than that, great work!

I enjoyed the game! Because it moves a bit slowly, I got a bit tired of the music after a while, but it is good. Either the AI is pretty tough, or I am not so great. It definitely feels like some thinking ahead and more complex strategy is required. The graphics are on the simpler side but for a game like this it totally works.

SuperpowersLittle update on our previous comments, 2 remarks I wanted to share with you. 1. It seems like beating the game as the Soviets is easier due to you not starting with many high point areas under your influence (besides poland) which makes it easier to go on the offense. 2. We really liked the game so much we wanted to make something with a similar concept but then about to spanish civil war, we already tried to contact you over twitter and discord, but we wanted to ask if you're fine with us adapting (not copying) your idea to work with that

Duty of the Union: The CallI really like your game's concept ! I think it has a lot of potential and it kinda reminded me of Paradox games ! I strongly suggest you to keep on working on this concept ! Good job :)

The Iron CurtainThis was actually pretty challenging! I think the graphics were perfection. I enjoyed the concept, loved the historical tidbits, and was stressed out by how badly I was doing (in a fun way).

Venona: A Cold War AffairSimple graphics but really functional overall.
Remind me a bit to that "world war" fake twitter account.
As Nobody:Interactive said, you could also end up with really funny results.
Good job!

A Melody From East BerlinGood strategy game! I'd like something like this on mobile as well. Big props for historical accuracy to (such as giving you a fact/event what happens each year), really nice touch.

A Melody From East BerlinFun strategy game, also leads to very dumb map scenarios like west germany being communist and east germany capitalist, which is always fun
