Viva la Revolución! You stormed the presidential palace of the banana republic “La Isla”. El Presidente has fled and will come back with reinforcements in an hour. The people are in turmoil and demanding reforms: are you able to get the right people on your side? Otherwise you are more likely to be out of office than you can say “Ay Caramba”!
Now it’s up to you to take power!
As in any decent state, the president is just a puppet of the really important influence groups: business, military, church, media and trade union. The old elites still think of El Presidente. But with the right reforms, all conviction is quickly forgotten. Find out which law will make your Archbishop Papa Pepe happy and how your TV star Sara Rubio draws your attention. What economic boss Diego Ortega wants and also like the military chief and the labor leader.
Take power in the state for one hour. The revolutionary gameplay lets you vote on reforms and improve popularity. Will you be able to bring all the influence groups to your side before El Presidente returns with reinforcements? The clock is ticking …

This can be the first paragraph of your review, or a short summary, or left blank, as you prefer. Anything longer than a couple of lines may get truncated.
It has nothing to do with a classic Escape Room and should be put in a different Genre entirely. You do not Escape, there is pretty much no progression. It's just a single room where you have to influence some characters via votes on a screen, which happen every X minutes. All clues are basically available from the start, you just have to match them with the questions correctly, which can be very finicky. Make too many wrong choices and you have already lost, even if there is time left. You have no agency over anything. It just felt like a complete disappointment.
