Product Description

From the Manufacturer

You're the charismatic leader of a rebel faction out to oust the President of the Republic, by any means. Starting with a single loyal follower, a tiny secret HQ, and a small base of local support, it is up to you to build up a nationwide faction strong enough to remove the President and rule the Republic of Novistrana. The path to supremacy is fraught with danger. Other subversive groups, each with their own agendas, will be vying with you to take the reins of power. And of course, most formidably of all, the President will do anything to preserve his regime. Featuring a graphics engine that allows you to be as far removed or as up close to the action as you wish, with abilities ranging from engineering the economy to street fightin' political agitation, Republic is a genre-breaking simulation game with a stunning cinematic look and feel.

1.0 out of 5 stars Won't work with intel processors!, February 17, 2011

This review is from: Republic: The Revolution (Mac) (CD-ROM)
Don't buy this game if your Mac is less than 5 years old! It simply won't run on most Macs made after 2005.

I emailed Feral about the problem and they replied:

"...unfortunately, this game is designed for Macs with PowerPC processors, and will run poorly on Intel processors. We are aware of the graphical problems with the more modern MACs, but unfortunately there is nothing that will be done about this issue due to the age of the game. I am sorry that I cannot offer any more encouraging news."

They are still happy to sell it to you at a reduced price, even though it won't work on your computer.

1.0 out of 5 stars Didn't Work, December 21, 2009
= Fun:1.0 out of 5 stars 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Republic: The Revolution (Mac) (CD-ROM)
The game worked through the 'create' phase. When the map came up to start actually playing it was like someone sent an electric pulse to my computer that made it go haywire. I tried again and again but there was no luck playing this on my 24" iMac that I bought new in 2008. Frustrating!!

5.0 out of 5 stars a new kind of gameplay, November 26, 2003
By 
Nicholas Fate "The Lizard King" (Pittsburgh, PA United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Republic: The Revolution (Mac) (CD-ROM)
I just bought Republic:Revolution yesterday, I have by no means gotten far enough in the game to explain it in great detail. I can say that I can tell if a game will be good, and this game like the editor's review pointed out, is very different then other games. This game is very real, the object of the gameplay is to overtake the president of a new free Russian state after the collapse of the soviet union, i have never seen a game so intense and real, the game is not action packed but it is more psychological and the game seems to have a mind of it's own.
If you are a person looking for a challenge in computer gaming i highly recomend this game.
I dont know where this game is headed, but if it lives up to the potential that I think it posseses, it will be a masterpiece.
In this game you actually feel like you are alive and lost in the game ready to defend yourself, ready to start a REVOLUTION!
