The music makes this game so depressing. Also the game is kinda hard to understand, all I did was spamming the options lol.

Dang this a tough strategy game, honestly I dig it. The alt history storyline and usage of the doomsday clock is really cool, it is stressful to keep all 3 things in check, (Imo a little unfair for NATO to start off on 0% stability while the USSR to be at 100%) the music adds to the feeling of despair and I love it
It was too hard to reach 12 o'clock, way easier was win/lose. This is an interesting concept, it's force you to think about what humanity do.
Good job.
I ended the soviet union very fast. I didn't expect this type of game here, and I am glad that I played it :D it was good but a little too short. Good job!
really like the concept, lots of potential and really creative, feel like you like a bit of agency as a player, since you cant get new cards unless you use the old ones, altho that might be intentional as a statement of the real world hahah, great job anyway
Great setting and well designed game!
Bonus points for putting not-fun facts on the game page :'(
So first of all, I really appreciate the Cold War setting; that gives you some bonus points from me :)
And the game as a whole is honestly fantastic. Its super creative, the art and the music is absolutely phenomenal and the gameplay is straight up addicting (even if it is quite RNG dependent).
I truly hope that this game wins the jam - its just that good!
Damn... You've created a whole role-playing game in under 3 days. I'm amazed. just wow
very hard game but I had fun with it, super unique concept and quite well executed, maybe the game couldve been explained better but thats my only critique, other than that, great game!
I couldn't win, but maybe you can't? Beautiful and well thought out. The music adds great ambience.

Would you like to play a game?
How refreshing. I didn’t actually win, but what would that mean in the grand scheme of things anyhow? I did find myself wishing to discard on occasion. I’ve added this to my collection in case there are updates in the future.
good strategy game. I couldn't win, but I really liked the atmosphere.
Great game.......didnt know what the Doomsday clock was but now i do, great controls and i really loved how to tied histroy eith your game. Really enjoyed it.
There are some minor issues with the game, but the game itself is SO damn good I can't stop myself from playing it
I really like the way the theme has been used here, well done!
Really cool concept and the controls are quite intuitive. But my pea-sized brain couldn't comprehend it. I did try to keep both sides to 0% but failed to do so haha.
