Ohh man.. You will be in for a roller-coaster ride XDD as the game progress, the decision you makes could either make you or break you :v
Also, I didn't expect to find people who plays this kind of games like me. It's a delight to know that I am not alone :')) Please do drop some similar types of game suggestions, if you don't mind.
I don't know of any similar to this one in particular 😶, but if I leave aside the whole empire thing and just rely on decisions, I could recommend the first Beholder game, which is about a father supporting a family in a dictatorial country, where some decisions have somewhat serious consequences.
