About Judy

As WP's managing editor, I edit review and preview articles, attempt to keep up with the frantic pace of Rainier's news posts, and keep our reviewers on deadline, which is akin to herding cats. When I have a moment to myself and don't have my nose in a book, I like to play action/RPG, adventure and platforming games.

DreamCatcher Games today announced that SuperPower 2, the only geopolitical simulation on the market, is now available at major retailers in North America.

In SuperPower 2, regular citizens are given Presidential powers as they seek world domination, but in order to be successful, players will need intelligence, political-savvy and a touch of shrewdness. Digital dictators will build up their own countries and increase influence in the broader world while competing against a sophisticated A.I. They will also have to master economic sanctions, political alliances, and military actions to wage battles. The craftiest gamers are able to fine-tune each country's performance, from creating or breaking treaties, to making strategic decisions in particular military conflicts.

SuperPower 2 is developed by Canadian studio, GolemLabs, whose original SuperPower sold more than 200,000 units. The game has an ESRB rating of 'T' for Teen in North America and "3+ PEGI" in Europe. This title will begin shipping to European retailers on October 27th.

Features:

  • 193 real countries equipped with realistic data drawn from the CIA World Factbook, the United Nations and U.S. Military databases.
  • Sophisticated A.I. designed to realistically simulate each country.
  • Real-life combat situations, with multiple forces joining and leaving battles as the balance of power shifts.
  • Real-time gameplay and Modular units building.
  • Solo scenarios and "sandbox mode," as well as full Multiplayer support for up to 32 players in a variety of styles, including world domination, economic master, and many others.
