Democracy 3 Africa Announced
November 3, in the year of our Lord 2015 --
Positech Games re-shuffling cabinet for latest installment of
political strategy game. Democracy 3: Africa is a new stand
alone re-working of the BAFTA nominated and top-selling
political strategy game Democracy 3 scheduled for release in
early 2016. Take charge of one of 10 African countries and
implement policies that will overcome the challenges each faces,
improve the lives of your citizens and ultimately steer them to
prosperity.
Why Africa?
Good question and one which Cliff Harris, owner of Positech
Games is best placed to answer:
“Africa has been unrepresented as a setting for videogames but
when it has these depictions have often been clichéd and
certainly have never touched the real issues that the continent
faces, such as malnutrition, poor literacy and access to clean
water. Democracy 3: Africa puts these topics front and centre
and will challenge players to make tough decisions on issues
that we normally only encounter in news reports. So, even if you
have successfully led a government in Democracy 3, this new
title will make you rethink your priorities and policies.”
Although it builds on the existing game, Democracy 3: Africa
will feature completely new artwork and music alongside a new
set of dilemmas and events that are tuned to the real world
issues and situations that are relevant to Africa.
Developed by Positech Games, Democracy 3: Africa is being
designed by Jeff Sheen from Stargazy Studios and will be
available early next year for PC, (and more than likely Mac),
via Steam, directly from Positech as well as your favourite
digital stores.
