Dictators : No Peace

This is a great game with fun tactics. I had an idea tho. When attacking other countries, it would be cool if any surrounding countries you "owned" would help you fight so you didn't lose as many troops. It would also be cool if other countries tried to attack your main country if your troop power was too low. This could be a way to lose the game and also serve as a way to make sure you are able to get your power back right after a big war. Just an idea, but overall a great game!

After a while, you learn the mechanics and it becomes very repetitive. Not much strategy required. I do like the caravan system though. It could also use more fleshing out admittedly though. Perhaps if wars were a bit more involved, and if there was more of a threat or more to worry about the more countries you took over, it could be drastically improved. Great game overall to kill time

I like the rebel feature, and that you're always fighting other super powers over territory. The deals help a lot very early on, but thanks to the cargo limiting to 1000, and after the first deal you get only 20% later game it has little use. Which great for balancing in my eyes, you can't get too powerful too quick. It gets a little repetive late game, but I suppose that's to be expected. Love the simplicity of the graphics, but would like a little more variations to domination and politics.

Played it and beat it. Honestly it's pretty easy, it would be cool if there was difficulty settings so I could make it harder, or custom settings where you can adjust the average frequency and strength of rebelions/foreign attacks. Once you get to the end game there is so much money passively coming in that you can just repeatedly max your army and take out whoever you want. Also I ran into an issue with the bonus nuke, after watching the ad the game would crash, would still get the nuke though

This game is actually pretty fun and definitely has so much potential. The music has gotten stuck in my head. However, there's some glaring bugs that, if fixed, would make the game much better. I've found that when my land army gets on a ship to colonize, it can sometimes get stuck. Tapping the ship is usually enough to solve this, but sometimes it even requires a restart. Something similar happens to the trade ship; it might be a ship pathfinding issue. The game is still quite fun, though.

I like this game and the concept. I even like that it's super basic animations and gameplay. The downside is there is 1 level and 1 round of 1 game. Selecting different starting countries doesnt diversify the gameplay. Yeah the game will take you a couple days to play, but it's done after that. It feels like the demo version of a game. For me, this is a start, not the whole game. Add a local 2 player version, maybe add in some rule change scenarios based off historical events. EXPAND!!!!!!!!!!!

Great little game up to a point. I want to love it, I really do but... way too easy. The frequency of other countries attacking is too little. If you take over the little countries before the larger ones (logically), you get so big that you can defend against attacks easily. It should be that if you attack another countries colony, they get mad and attack you. Make it a little more challenging instead of just taking over with little to worry about defending yourself. Other than that it's great!

This game was surprisingly fun and addicting, it took me a couple of hours to beat and it actually kept me interested. There are some minor errors and glitches. For some reason the army and the caravan like to stall and you have to restart the app. The graphics could be improved on (they're mostly free resources it looks like) but given this was a one-man job it's still impressive. Music is a bit repetitive but again, still impressive. The simplicity is great.

I picked this game up and played it when I had downtime throughout the week and had a lot of fun with it! It's extremely simple to learn yet still fun enough to hold interest! I do wish the Cargo/Trade part of the game had a little more incentive to use, though. I went my first playthrough without it entirely and every now and then found it useful in my 2nd play, but not really enough to care. Also wish there was more incentive for replayability. Either way a great game even for the one play!!

It could be a great game. As it stands, the market seems kind of broken, so there isn't much of a way to make money other than waiting or clicking overhead planes. The game doesn't keep playing when minimized - so no afk wealth accumulation, attacks, etc. Most annoying: losing to local rebels resets the country's military back to the same strength it was before initial attack. This makes the game incredibly repetitive and boring. Otherwise, a great game is there - just needs tweaks.

Finding this game, I didn't expect much out of it until' I actually played it. It's quite fun and surprisingly good. Came here because of the Countryball put into it. I'm unsure what the trading is to its purpose. Doesn't seem as much clear, but no lag, no quick noticiable bugs, and no ads to my experience. I absolutely love it. Very nicely done. ❤❤❤

Worth the download. It is addictive, super easy controls, and does not need good overcomplicated graphics like some. It requires a bit of focus but you can still let it play while doing something else if you are secured, a great time eater. Best pro? The thought put in it. 159 different countries (not like Risk), all with their flag and decent representations of their strength. Needs many tweaks to some aspects, mainly the trade component. 8.5/10 with 10/10 potential! Totally free, not even ads!

I like it, it's a time killer, but there's one thing that's wrong with it, you upgrade over the stats of the other country and invade it, and then upgrade the economy, and then repeat for 159 times. It makes it boring and also makes it stale, not too much strategy, but still the game is fun. Once you learn the mechanics it gets stale. But good job for your first game RPN Indie Developer. :D

Very good game, simple and clean. Played it a little bit here and there over a couple days and won a round. It's not really challenging or complicated, it's just a matter of somewhat decisive thinking to conquer as quickly and efficiently as possible. For someone new to strategy games, this is something you can pour many hours into. For anyone such as myself with years of playing strategy games, this isn't necessarily exciting, just the basic fundamentals of conquering a map.

Thought this was going to be a strategy game, but this is more of an idle game. There's really very limited strategy to the game, you basically just wait for your money to grow and then attack whatever nation is the weakest. The game barely pressures you at all, so there is very little worry, even if you lose your entire military. The games also filled with busy tasks that add little depth, like manually exploring each country, upgrading infrastructure that is so cheap there is no reason not to

Spent a lot of time accomplishing very little in the game. Long wait for the gold to build up so you can upgrade the army enough to conquer something that provides 1-3 more gold per second, and then you lose it before you have enough to upgrade its defensive army. Cost scaling is all over the place, and the money issue should've been solved by those really handy "trade messages" I saw once or twice but then not again for almost an hour. It gets an extra star for not having ads every 3 seconds.

I finished the game in one sitting and there a few things I'd like to suggest. First you should add an option where if i have surrounded a country, i should be able to use the troops the belonging to the surrounding countries to invade without have to use my main troops. There should also be a 2x button because when there are over 250+ it takes a while for the battle to end. Another thing is a list on who are enemies and who are not. For example if i attack a UK colony, they my enemy.
