CADRE: Centralized Administration, Data & Reporting Environment

Game premise and genre

CADRE: Centralized Administration, Data & Reporting Environment is a turn-based political simulator where you assume the role of the Chairman of a fictional state. Your term lasts for ten years, divided into forty quarters. In this role, you manage various aspects of the state including resources, security, and public sentiment through edicts and policies.

Managing resources and policies

You are responsible for moving grain, posting garrisons, selling land, printing money, and building railways. Each decision you make is based on a stated purpose and an actual outcome, which often differ. For instance, an edict to encourage steel production can lead to increased output but poor quality, illustrating the disconnect between intentions and real results.
