Greetings, dictators of Gradnar!
The update has already been released and is available to all players. To start the third chapter, select it in the “New Game” menu.
What awaits you in the new chapter?
This time, we must bring the rebellious autonomy of Grezland under control. We will play as Vislan’s cousin and Balitsa’s uncle — the достойный party official Ganbar Gatskolka.
Greetings, dictators. 🫵🏽
There haven’t been many updates from Gradnar lately — development of the new chapter is in full swing. I’d like to share a short video from the upcoming chapter:
This time, you will take control of the rebellious Grezland. The role of dictator will be assumed by Vislan Gatskolka’s cousin and the uncle of Gradnar’s Ruler, Balisa Gatskolka. The video also showcases a new mechanic 🎟 — “Riban’s Lucky Tickets,” as well as a new console with a mini-game.
I serve Gradnar! 🫡
Balitsa Gatskolka has received the full support of the Party and the people. She has proven that she rightfully holds the position of Ruler.
Her first reform will be the mandatory issuance of a new document, the Citizen Surveillance Card.
The document is mandatory for all residents of Gradnar, its autonomous regions, as well as for all individuals entering the country. All residents are required to obtain the document from the Ministry of Statistics no later than the first quarter of the current year.
The Citizen Surveillance Card will improve the quality of public services, strengthen statehood, and enhance civic consciousness. All Party officials are to take this information into account and be prepared to operate under the new regulations.
Greetings to the dictators and dictatoresses of Gradnar! The update is now live and available to all players. To start the second chapter, select it in the New Game menu.
1990. Due to the illness of Vislan Gatskolka, Gradnar is led by his daughter, Balitza. But will she be able to hold on to power? Only you can answer that question.
In addition to the new chapter, work has been done on the save system and bug fixes. Below is a list of the main changes.
Fixed a bug that allowed players to spend more personal money than was available in the briefcase.
Reworked some sound effects and reduced the volume of certain menu sounds.
Fixed an issue where settings could fail to save.
Fixed a bug that allowed stat manipulation in some cases when exiting dialogues.
Fixed an issue where, after returning to the game from the menu, an incorrect visitor character could appear.
Added a warning about flashing effects and loud sounds, as well as a disclaimer about offensive content (shown once on first launch).
Added save slots and the ability to delete saves. You can now have multiple saves, including simultaneous playthroughs of different chapters.
If you had previous saves, they will be moved to the first slot.
The new chapter features its own achievements and endings. Each ending has unique music. The illustration at the end of the new chapter has also been updated.
I sincerely thank all the players who have played Dictator Simulator. Special thanks to the German blogger Paluten, thanks to whom the game has gained many players from Germany.
A lot of work on the game is already underway, and a major update with the release of Chapter 2 — the new story of Gradnar — is planned by New Year. It will not be sold as a separate DLC but will become part of the main game and will be available to all players.
Thank you again, guys. Gradnar will not forget you.
P.S. I am aware of the inaccuracies and errors in some dialogues in different languages. I am actively working on this and other tasks.
Fixed an issue where graphics displayed with artifacts on devices with integrated graphics cards.
Added the Polish language.
