Professional reviews from gaming critics
Humor is a very powerful tool when it comes to politics. This is especially true for political satire. The best critiques of politics have been wrapped in humor, and nothing works better than political satire that does not take itself too seriously. So here we have Irony Curtain: From Matryoshka with Love, a great satire of cold war communism that presents a great mix of beautiful art and excellent characters with some quality comedic material.
