LCS is so good and I wish another game, outside of maybe Freedom Fighters, made even a half-assed attempt at what it did. It was never polished and the ideology was kind of wonky early 2000s edgelord liberalism, but building an insurgency out of the lumpenproletariat to take on reactionaries was such a great gameplay loop. If it received ongoing development it'd be to tycoon games what Dwarf Fortress is to colony games.

The game has been picked up by some volunteers and still is being actively developed. It's still a lot of fun to play.

When I used to work retail I installed this game on the cash register.

why did you post this just as I was getting into dwarf fortress. I've already lost a week to that game
I'm lucky I'm too stupid to get into DF. I'd lose years.
I bounced off of DF twice but got really into Rimworld. Not sure what that says about me.
It's supposed to be a lot of fun and full of pointed commentary. Like apparently as your society gets more and more liberal your liberals start to run in to problems bc their guns become illegal.
Yeah, different policies affect the gameplay in different ways. An extreme conservative police force is populated with death squad members with M16s whereas a liberal one has a large number of negotiators etc, it's a neat gameplay dynamic.
If your game ends up lasting several decades a lot of funny things start to change, like you can end up in court and the judges have laser-gavels
Love this game, really wish they'd do a polished version like Dwarf Fortress
