In Gorbachev: The Fall of Communism, you're dropped into the midst of the Soviet Union's tumultuous final years, navigating the challenges of reform and the looming threat of a coup.

With the Soviet economy, media, and culture all in play, you'll need to think strategically and make difficult choices to achieve your goals. Will you prioritize short-term gains or long-term stability? The fate of the Soviet Union is in your hands, and the outcome is far from certain.
