According to polls, 64.5% of you want this.


<span class="bold">Democracy 3: Electioneering</span>, a cynical take on how to swing the elections in your favor, is now available for Windows, Mac, and Linux, DRM-free on GOG.com with a 10% launch discount.

Voting is a fundamental right -nay, an obligation!- of every democratic citizen. But sometimes people act too rationally, threatening to derail the campaign of upstanding candidates such as yourself.
Thankfully, you can always issue manifestos and sentimental speeches full of totally realistic promises to sway them your way. Hey, perhaps if they are seeing you in giant billboards every day as they are driving to work, they will warm up to the fact that soon they'll be seeing you on their TV screen every day after work. Some reputable private investors might help you set those up for the modest price of a small favor and maybe some ambitious journalist will also be eager to write about how you saved that little girl from the flames of your opponent's collapsing factory. After all, people need to know these things, if they're to make the right choice, don't they?



Charm your way into the hearts of the electorate and triumph in the polls of <span class="bold">Democracy 3: Electioneering</span>, DRM-free on GOG.com. The 10% discount will last until July 15, 4:59 PM UTC.

Titanium: Constitutional monarchy, where the king/queen is the technical head of state, does count.
Not going to get into a big political discussion right now, but I don't agree. Athough I admit that the constitutional monarchy hiting closer to home, the Spanish one, has me quite biased on the matter. I mean, the guy was king because he was personally handpicked for the position by a fascist military dictator, what the hell.

JudasIscariot: Elective monarchy was a thing. We had that here in Poland although it was only limited to the land-owning nobles at the time so not completely democratic...
I think we get into semantics here. I put what I believe to be a definition of monarchy up there, but it could be argued that king is a blanket term for anyone ruling a country back in the day, regardless of how they got the position. Although a king being chosen by how many noble supporters they could gather is indeed nothing groundbreaking, specially taken too far and causing civil war.

I'm curious to get this add-on because the whole election "game" is missing in the core game. My reservation however is that the game plays quite fast, each turn represents a significant amount of time. I'm not sure how you're supposed to be able to deal with both vote-fishing AND actual politics/economy. Of course, there is always the option to disable term limits for the two-three countries that have them...
Still no "Collector's Edition" with the game and first three DLC for $29.99?

Vestin: I'd venture a guess that when most people think of monarchy, they think of the absolute and hereditary kind. What about "free election" ;)?

P1na: I think that absolute, hereditary monarchies (by divine mandate, for bonus points) are pretty much the definition, yes. Whatever an elected ruler should be called, I don't think king is the right title.
I think I've just developed a lot of respect for the first Republic...
Too many DLCs for me as well. 6 installers. No, thank you. ToME with its three installers is tedious enough for me.

Do Africa and Electioneering really include the Linux versions? The release text says yay, while the game card says nay.


Btw. the “Buy Series” function keeps on giving: “You save 0.60 € (1%)” Amazing ;-)
