About this game
PLOT YOUR RISE TO POLITICAL DOMINATION!
Frustrated by the pathetic dummies ruling the country? Waiting for a real leader to take charge? Think you could do a better job?
Plan your own Machiavellian rise from political nobody to Head of State. Build your ideology picking policies as you see fit, not forgetting to include plenty of crowd pleasers. As your support grows, make sure to cozy up to all the right people: the Police, the Church and anyone else with power. After all, once you take power, you don't want anyone taking it back!
Make sure you are prepared for random events that could knock you off course with a provocative comeback always at the ready. You'll need to play by the rules to start with, but as your momentum builds, who needs democracy?! There's only one person fit to this nation: YOU. And you're going to rule for a long, long time...
** WHAT REAL POWER FEELS LIKE **
BUILD POWER – Collect influence with a simple tap. Easy to start, but hard to finish!
RISE AND DOMINATE – Spend influence on policies and control measures to win support from your rivals
CHOOSE WISELY – Look out for random events that can definitively change the course of your campaign
COMPLETE CONTROL – The more power you have, the more devastating your actions become
REVOLUTION – Dissolve democracy with the biggest landslide in history, and become the supreme leader
** ARE YOU SERIOUS?? **
Head of State is for everyone worried about the fate of liberal democracy. Everyone worried about the rise of demagogues and post fact politics. Everyone who enjoys a thoroughly engaging strategy game that makes you think.
Take 5 minutes out to forget how worrying the real world is, and live out your darkest fantasies of political domination.

I would not recommend buying this game, even if it's so cheap. Honestly, I wouldn't even bother to write this review if it was free to play, but seeing as they want money for it I just have to say that this game is nothing more than a disappoinment. The gameplay is just plain boring. There is no depth to it. The policies you choose don't matter, they are just icons you can spend your points on, so that you get more support, and then you win, the end. Nothing more than that. I have to say that the second faction (the illuminati cats?) is an interesting idea, unfortunately it gets old really quick, as they take forever to finish their sentences on the bottom of the screen, so soon you have a 100 points, you're halfway through in the way of momentum, and you can't spend said points, as that will result in so many protests that all your support will just disappear. But to be fair, this one may be just me not understanding what is the correct way to victory. I also have to say that the controls leave something to be desired. Sometimes... actually, basically all of the time I have to keep tapping the bubbles until the game decides to register it, it's really unresponsive, and especially annoying when dealing with protests. The only thing in this game that I have no complaints about would be the graphics, and still they are just basic, ok, nothing special or interesting. There is potential to this game, don't get me wrong. They could really go in any direction with it - like after getting into power you could have to keep your country from falling apart because of the consequences of your pre-election policies. You could add interaction with the opposition to the game, more meaningful than just a number on the screen. The problem is, that didn't do any of that.
