Secret Government News

As you know, there is a quite complex economic model used in Secret Government. Today we’d like to address an aspect of logistics. Probably, you haven’t focused on the logistic costs parameter, but it is essential when setting the price if you buy or sell goods outside the region. You can see this parameter when you hover the cursor over the trade route.

Logistic costs heavily depend on the geography of the region and its transport accessibility. If it’s a large mountainous area, the transportation costs will be high in this region. There is a logistic coefficient for all regions in the game. Bear this in mind when considering directions for trading if you want to reduce the final price of the goods.
You can also influence the logistic costs directly. To do this, use an errand for the Minister of Industry in the government of the country you need. The "Develop road infrastructure” errand will reduce transportation costs.
You might use this tool if you want to influence the economies of countries at a deeper level.

Welcome to another short article about the upcoming updates and the inside of Secret Government. Today we are going to talk about a very important part of the gameplay which is ideology. There are ideologies in any country. They have a large influence on the image of these countries. Ideologies set the selection of estates and the form of government in the country. Ideologies bring along values that determine the satisfaction of estates.

The key point in the spread of ideologies is ideological pressure. It shows how quickly ideology will spread among the population. Our brothers, estates, political forces create pressure, as well as trade relations also help to spread pressure. We have added bonuses that will help you speed up spreading ideology and increasing ideological pressure. If you want these bonuses to work, certain conditions must be met. You can see the effects of bonuses and their conditions in the tooltip for each ideology.

We have also added ideological resistance so that there will be a counterbalance to the possibility of enhancing ideologies and diversifying the mechanisms of influence on the estates. Ideological resistance of estates shows how much a particular estate can resist ideological pressure. All people are different. Someone is more susceptible to new ideas, and someone is less. In combination, it allows you to make the spread of ideologies more interesting. You need not only to create conditions for the spread of the ideology you want but also to influence the estates. At this point, reducing the ideological pressure will be possible for masters as their errand. In the future, this will be an indirect impact. After all, one of the main features of Secret Government is the indirect impact on countries.

And as always, we will be glad to receive your feedback and comments.

Hello and welcome to our ongoing series of notes on the Secret Government updates! As you know, there is not only one secret society under the player’s control. So far, we’ve introduced another secret society that is AI-controlled. It’s called the Dark Brotherhood. Just like the Brotherhood under your control, the Dark Brotherhood pursues its goals and tries to rebuild the picture of the world.
You might have already encountered the Dark Brotherhood when you saw red-hooded adepts in the government of the countries. In this case, there may be several options for the story. If the Dark Brotherhood considers the country important for reaching its goals, you should be prepared for a very tough confrontation. On the other hand, they may decide that they’re not ready for a conflict and will leave the country of your presence. After all, they are not willing to destroy your Brotherhood, but to achieve their goals as soon as possible and change the picture of the world in accordance with these goals.

There is also an option to avoid conflict or try to act unnoticed. The secrecy of your brothers plays an important role here. As you know, secrecy is spent on running errands. But it also serves as your protection against exposure. If you are in a safe secrecy range, enemy agents can’t blow your cover. The safe range of secrecy is colored green. If you have gone beyond the safe zone, it becomes red. In this case, your brother may be exposed and attacked. As a result, you either have to flee the country or start a head-on collision.

You can choose the tactics that you like better and more in line with the capabilities of your brothers. The traits of your brothers can give an edge in both stealth tactics and direct confrontation. The mechanics with the ability to act unnoticed will be in one of the upcoming updates. As always, we will be happy to receive your comments.

Greetings to you, Grand Masters and leaders of Secret Societies! In this short article on our upcoming updates, we’d like to tell you about the new game features that we’re going to add very soon.
Any strategy game requires you to assess the situation. After all, you make your decisions thanks to this. So it’s very important to easily receive accurate information about the situation. This is exactly the tool we have added.
This tool is called trends. The trend shows you the changes of any parameter so that you can see its movement pattern. For example, you raised taxes for peasants to reduce their numbers and started tracking the parameter of the number of peasants to do so. Trends are perfect for this. The trend will show how the number changed in the past few days after the chosen actions.
This feature allows you to quickly and easily read information about the status of the parameter you need. Trends are displayed as a graph, which makes them very easy to understand.


Now trends are visible for almost all parameters in the game, which makes the gameplay in such a challenging and complex game even more transparent.
You will be able to see and try out this new feature in the next updates. As always, we are happy to receive your feedback and comments.
