Hi, as I'm sure some of you know already, we recently released an update to the game to support Unicode text, allowing us to support some new languages such as Russian and Chinese. As a result of the new code, some players experienced problems with text rendering and fonts, making the game unplayable. We are deeply sorry for this. We set up the original (pre-Unicode) build under a beta called 'classic' which you can still access, but obviously this was no help to those of you who bought the game in the new languages such as Russian, Portuguese or Chinese. We have now (we are 95% sure) fixed this issue for everyone and uploaded a new build today which should work on all PCs, all languages. if you have in the past switched to the 'classic' beta, you might want to leave that now and re-join the main build of the game. Hue apologies to everyone who was inconvenienced by this. This has been a code nightmare, but hopefully its fixed now and allows much wider language support. We would really appreciate it if people could let us know either here, the forums or directly at cliff AT positech dot co dot uk, if this new build fixes font problems for you. The new build is 1.32 and you can see the build at the top right of the main menu screen. Thanks for your patience! we are a very small team and had not encountered this issue before (most developers never deal with Unicode support but we wanted to support Chinese and Russian players).

Crime, Unemployment, National Debt, Terrorism, Climate Change...Have you got the answers to the problems that face western industrialized nations? Here is your chance to find out...
An entire virtual country
Democracy 3 simulates the motivations, loyalties and desires of everyone in the country. A custom-designed neural network is used to model individual voters, each which varying memberships of voting groups, political parties and pressure groups. Each voters income is modeled, along with their levels of complacency and cynicism. This is the most sophisticated political strategy game ever created.Unique user interface
Despite being vastly detailed under-the-hood, Democracy 3 has a unique user interface that makes visualizing the connections between laws, policies, voters and situations easy. A simple iconic-based view of your countries issues allows you to 'drill-down' through all the relationships between policies and voters to quickly analyze the impacts of your decisions. Your trade policy may affect GDP, which will affect unemployment, which will effect poverty, and thus crime, leading to a change in tourism, which affects GDP...Complex simulated voters
Each individual voter is a mixture of a subset of the 21 different voter groups represented within the game. They might be a young, wealthy, liberal socialist commuter, or a retired conservative religious capitalist, for example. Not only this, but the extent to which they identify each of those groups is both variable, and can be affected by your policies in the long term. Convert your country to religion, or atheism, to capitalism, or socialism by careful and nuanced adjustment of your policies and laws over time. A 'focus group' feature lets you look at individual voters and see exactly how they came to a decision to vote for you (or not!).Read the reviews!
