| Short Description | Stalin is dead! Now what? Join up to 60 comrades in piloting the Soviet state, and communist party in the wake of the death of Stalin – navigating yourself and your policies through the Soviet System. |
| Long Description | After three decades as de facto dictator of the Soviet Union, Stalin’s death signifies a potential watershed between the past era of repression, famine, and World Wars, and a new era of theorized technological wonders, nuclear capabilities, and perhaps even, a thaw in the hardline ideological attitudes. Meanwhile, within the Kremlin, dictator’s death has triggered a bit of a scramble. Party leaders now jockey for poll position, with many benefits await those who secure themselves at the top of the Soviet pyramid. The Thaw is an abstract political simulation of the upper echelons of the Soviet government during an era of reform, burgeoning optimism, and societal change. Players will not represent real historical figures but instead Communist Party leaders with procedurally generated opinions. Beware, bribery, horse-trading, conspiracy, and maybe even a purge or two, may ensue. |
