Vibe's take

Weighty and tense in waves – calm political planning gets repeatedly disrupted by crisis events, and the looming resilience test means you're never just optimizing for growth alone.

About this game

Limit puts you at the helm of an entire Nation navigating up to seven generations of political choices, resource pressure, and mounting global crises. Every generation cycles through political decisions, the social fallout they cause, and a wave of international events and alliances, with the game ending early if crises spiral out of control. Before scoring, you even have to prove your nation can survive shortages without help, resilience counts as much as growth.
