Workers & Resources: Soviet Republic (v1.1.0.7 & 5 DLCS)

Workers & Resources: Soviet Republic is a detailed city-building and management simulation set in a Soviet-inspired planned economy, where players take on the role of governing a fledgling, non-aligned republic. The game challenges you to oversee every aspect of your nation’s development, from mining natural resources and manufacturing goods to providing essential services like healthcare, education, and entertainment. The gameplay revolves around balancing the complex needs of your citizens with the demands of a dynamic, realistic supply chain that spans from raw materials to finished products. You’ll build infrastructure from the ground up, carefully managing construction costs, resource acquisition, and labor while expanding your transportation networks to connect cities, factories, and resource sites across vast maps. Trade and diplomacy play a crucial role as you navigate between Eastern and Western markets, leveraging both rubles and dollars to acquire technology, resources, and currency. Your citizens’ happiness and loyalty are key metrics to monitor, influenced by access to necessities such as food, clothing, and heating, as well as education and entertainment. The simulation accounts for seasonal challenges like harsh winters, requiring you to maintain stable supplies of electricity, water, and heat. A rich variety of vehicles—including trucks, trains, planes, and ships—support the movement of goods and people, while urban planning tools let you customize transit systems, road networks, and infrastructure. With support for extensive modding, the game invites players to tailor the experience, creating their own unique Soviet republic through new buildings, vehicles, and gameplay enhancements.
