www.SimCountry.com

Basic version ofSociety perhaps?

Simcountry.com is a pure text play as far as I can tell via a browser. No fancy graphics but you can run a country (highish level), run an Enterprise Holding company with lots of subsiduaries or both.

The Country side you have to look after, schools, hospitals, transportation (roads, rail water treatment), armies (offensive, defensive and strategic i.e. nuclear) and whilst you are at it, make money from the State run corporations or the visiting CEO run companies.

Everything is fairly high level, i.e. build X number of elementary schools, or Y hospitals. The key is you have to have the right mix of available people in order to run them...otherwise they fall down.

You can set salaries and taxes and specify social security payments but the key comes down to how many people there are and of what level. Upgrading companies so they make bigger profits hence taxes is key but to do that you need better qualified people...

I've yet to be involved in a war but you can takeover other countries, buy corporations etc. You can take war out of the equation if you wish and become a peaceful nation but its a one way path. Once peaceful always peaceful.

Wonder how Society compares to Simcountry, graphics aside...

My favorite text based sim was a game called U-Planet, it was a combat simulator where you commanded a military power. Had alot of fun with it until it died off in the dot com bust.

If you can handle lots of detail and understand the concepts of realastic governing then Simcountry is a good game i have an account on it... and i was wondering if anyone else was interested in joining my Federation... also if you can afford to pay $5 a month you should get a "super" account whereis you get special features of the game not allowed to lessers also when not paying your country resets every 45 days..... Flipn days with Suepr account country will not reset. anyways Simcountry is a really i mean REALLY in-depth game on managing an online nation or Enterprise unfourtunitly progress takes Real life days for things to get done... and its diffucult to manage but generally its a good game... so if your interested in joining the game.. consider joining my federation please i need ppls. or ill have to start conquering nearby nations... ><
