- That's right, today we try to stop the collapse of the USSR by taking control of it in Crisis in the Kremlin, a game that is part political simulator, part strategy game with the worst UI I've ever seen. Join me as I decide on how I want to run my country, influence the world and cause the fall of the USA. EU4, CK3, HOI4 and Democracy 4? This one puts them all to shame.

I also tried running Communist China... th-cam.com/video/DnM6K1wFYKw/w-d-xo.html
By the way, the game is called Crisis in the Kremlin! Super cheap on steam right now!
Of course Laith would find a way to convert the USSR to Islam.
I have no idea why the Islamic USSR formed, but I’m here for it.
Bro, Spoilers, this is the top comment, chill out
Alhamduillah
Islamic communism must be the most based thing ever
This spoiler got me hyped to watch the video like nothing else
*7:32* "Why did the Soviet Union even collapse?"
*7:46* "We are losing money quite dramatically but I'm gonna ignore that."
Brezhnev in a nutshell
@@b3ygghsas Actually, Gorbachev.
Therapist: "Laith Gorbatjov isn't real, he can't hurt you."
Laith Gorbatjov:
Mikhail Gorbelaith
Crisis in the Kremlin is kind of a meme game in Russia. This is the first time I see a streamer from a different country playing it
@@mrhappydrip2361 Well, it's a very old game. It was made for MS DOS and this is some sort of HD remake. I believe it was unique for its time. It was before any Paradox and Total War games. And it's ridiculosouly hard. Legend says even developers coudn't complete.
Love that this game is getting more recognition.
I never thought I'd see a play through of it that was new. I'm glad, but it may be painful to watch someone play when I already know how to play the game.
I still do not know what game this is 😅
@@charmer2087 Crisis in the Kremlin, a tribute to a DOS game of... Lower quality, to say the least. I've played that original 1991 version, and it's a mess. Much like this 2016 edition, but not as fun!
@@ihaveleftthetesco7628 thank you my guy 👍🏼
@@charmer2087 its Crisis in the Kremlin
by Kremlin games
in the kremlin games the easiest path to sucess is always stalinism go full conservative and supress the oposition rush ogas and in this game the mars landing for the industrial goods and the popularity they give you and keep checking if the money you are spending in the industries is worth it.
pls play maos legacy next its really good
Hard to survive. The tutorial sucks.
the easiest path imo is moderate
Easiest path is to switch to mixed economy/titoism for a bit (basically doing a temporary NEP) with moderates and ligachev, invest on OGAS and then by the time OGAS will be ready switch to planned economy (basically end the NEP), it's a path I've done several times that always works quite well
I absolutely adore it how youtube thinks that Laith plays HOI4 in this video!
What game is it?
@@Zopiexx Crisis in the Kremlin, its in the description
@@Zopiexx sov Mao stalin trotsky communist break game simulator
I think that should do it.
@@catfacecat.Is that seriously the game name?
@@catfacecat. Thanks.
Oh, swell, a major youtuber doing a Kremlingames game! Crisis in the Kremlin is their oldest title, and probably the most obtuse but also the most open-ended. The UI has gradually got better with each new title, but is still kind of jank, and you can tell that English is very definitely not their first language. Still, these games have their charm to them. I never could figure this one out - I think you actually got much further than I did, despite allegedly having no idea what you were doing. :P
7:37 - (insert obligatory comment about it collapsing due to revisionism)
9:00 - fun fact, you can, in fact, be a cool bro and unilaterally agree to nuclear disarmament. NATO will be very happy to hear it.
11:55 - you actually had the option to purge the people demanding the genetics scientists be purged. XD
14:21 - you CAN, in fact, win global thermonuclear war in this game, under certain circumstances. :)
21:55 - "can I have money from the US?" - Gorbachev's economic policy in a nutshell XD
23:17 - "This will have consequences" XD
Collapse is more obtuse in my opinion but yeah, CitK is a definite second!
All of Kremlingames’ roster are bangers!
4:11 Phew a map, was worried there for a second Laith had strayed too far
I read Gromyko's autobiography, he lead an insane life and had a legendary reputation. By the 1980's he had been in high-level politics for over 40 years.
Finally a Paradox streamer played this game. In my first try I got overthrown at the beginning of my second year in this game.
Edit: went back after watching and tried 3 more times, 3rd time was the charm and I won getting to 1996 as Stalinist.
This game and the other games by this studio are soooo much fun. I would recommend also China: Mao's Legacy by this studio it's pretty fun.
This game is so good, glad to see people playing it. Though I'm definitely an Ostalgie guy myself.
Looks incredibly fun. Would love to try it out
That thumbnail is cursed
NEVER DID I EVER THINK ID SEE A TH-camR PLAY THIS!!!!
This is awesome. So many fun and weird little cold war games like this. I beg of you to play more of these niche titles
Almost hyperventilated from seeing you posting Crisis in The Kremlin
I'm so excited
That thumbnail images looks exactly like the sleep apnea demon that haunts my dreams. Thanks Gorba-laith.
CK3 Suggestion from openai
Challenge: The Infinite Dynasty
Objective: Establish and maintain a dynasty that lasts for at least 10 generations.
Rules:
Start as a count-level character of your choice in any historical start date.
Your chosen character must have no existing dynastic holdings or significant power.
You cannot marry into established powerful dynasties or form alliances with them.
No direct inheritances can be used to gain power, titles, or wealth.
You must rely on intrigue, diplomacy, warfare, and vassal management to expand your influence.
You must always play on Ironman mode to prevent save scumming.
If your player character dies without a legitimate heir or loses all titles, the challenge ends.
Genuinely very entertaining lmao, keep up the good work, Laith!
That looked like a weird game but it was enjoyable to watch.
Also I don't know that much about communism, but I think Stalinists were in favor of communism in one state, meanwhile Trotzkyists were in favor of world revolution so kinda the exact opposite.
Wonder if a US side game exists in that capacity aswell. Would be fun to play both sides.
I miss the USSR man. We had a good thing going, Gorbachev and you just had to go and BLOW IT UP
Countries fall *for a reason* and Gorbachev wasn't one for the USSR.
@@090giver090countries don't fall for _a_ reason, they fall for many, and Gorbachev was one of then
Need more of this
by FAR the best thumbnail this channel has ever used
I remember my first crisis in the kremlin game, was a total disaster and I loved every second of it. Had to look up how to play it on TH-cam and it lead to me an un ironic Stalinist. Good times 10/10 would communism again
The path of all Kremlingames players XD
Bought this game hope they make a sequel, they're definitely on to something.
They are probably making it rn
This game is super impressive. Would love to see more
Oh man, Kremlingames is a rabbithole. Honestly, i prefer Ostalgie over other their games as in my mind the most user friendly and diverse (as you can play as most warsaw pact countries). And considering it got the most work and dlcs im not alone in that opinion.
Some recommend Mao's legacy but i just dont understand China's internal policies and dont know their politics to comfortably play.
Collapse is interesting, but in my mind underdeveloped as of now
I love this, please play more crisis in the Kremlin and try ostalgie
As the other comments say, do also check out Mao's Legacy! Then Collapse after that since unlike their other games, this one is a sandbox for a fictional East European country so there's a lot of roleplay potential there!
This is the moment TheSocialStreamers became TheSocialistStreamers.
Nice Video as always 👍👍
Man j really like the videos where Laith plays stand alone games
You should play another game by these developers called China: Mao's legacy, it's a pretty great game. Anyways amazing video as always.
PLEASE CONTINUE WITH THIS GAME!!!
My man Laith comes up very deep and thoughtful quotes such as "racism is generally bad". I also love how this is a hoi4 gameplay according to TH-cam.
well, that was definitely interesting to watch, do you plan to play more? even do a perfect run where you unify the world under communism?
"Bald Gorbachev Laith isn't real, He can't hurt you."
Bald Gorbachev Laith:
17:50
Lol this run has so many cursed moments haha 😂
I've tried getting into this game and it's sequel Ostalgie multiple times in the past two years, and I give up every time because the UI looks so intimidating. So it just stares at me from my steam page, silently judging me for my lack of commitment
приятно видеть видео про игру от русских разрабов, мог бы ещё, для атмосферы русский язык включить в игре))
it's a real pleasure to watch the video about the game of russian developers, could you use russian language in this game next time for more vibe, please))
Please, play Workers and resources: Soviet republic
This!!
aww i remember this game, crisis in the kremlin. Fucking love that game
Well, this was a weird one. And fascinating.
I never thought i'd see Laith play Crisis in the Kremlin, whats next. Imperator MP?
nice video!
Hi Laith, any chance you'll play Crisis in the Kremlin Cold War?
Kremlingames announced it late last year.
I think their's a way to Federalize the USSR in this game.
i remember a DOS game that looked exactly like that
Imagine avoiding playing Hoi4
You picked Trotskyism. Comrade, you have chosen defeat.
I used to play it a lot in 2018. I tried all the paths.
What is the game name
@@j.amajhi2046 Crisis in the Kremlin. Made by Kremlingames
please make Laith Gorbachev leave my head or I won't be able to sleep tonight
Oh Fuck, you played this game? This is gonna be fun. I fuckin love this game, but even among the map game community it was extremely niche
I love Kremlin Games work, glad to see you playing it
Hey, sorry I didn't comment sooner. We've been having crazy thunderstorms in Delmarva. I almost forgot to tell you to play a Fire Emblem Game! Day 80. My patience is limitless.
Please play the other Kremlin games. They are all great.
That thumbnail is truly horrifying
Yo mate, can you reproduce the most cursed thing I have ever seen in EU4? A Crimean Emperor of the HRE?
This thumbnail I have no words
Laith you don't know much about economics and you are getting a business masters degree
Things I learned from this video('s thumbnail): Laith + Gorbachev = Bernie Sanders?
Interesting mechanics and it's only 2$? I'm sold
Play "Hidden Agenda" next
Glorious Comrade!
Play more please 🙏
What is this game called?
Laith who told you that the USSR was sucking resources from the african nations? They did thr opposide, they helped thr african nations take foregein imperialist influence out
That thumbnail 😂😂
You should play Suzerain
oh hell yeah
First of all- I won't allow anyone call Gorbachev without title sheik
what is da game called
I first read "I tried ruining the USSR"
how dare you pick trotscyst/s
Game?
The thumbnail?! 💀
What game is this?
More! More! More!
Fun fact: For the last 4 days of its existance, Kazakhstan was the only member of the USSR.
Play China: Mao's Legacy next please
this seems like a hoi4 game
So what percentage of your viewers are even old enough to get how great that thumbnail is?
its just laiths face ontop of gorbachevs face?
Name?
Many of Crisis in the Kremlin's game mechanics are obtuse and badly explained and need to be learned through trial and error. For example the amount of corruption generated by many investments, for example in industry, increases exponentially. Minimal corruption with 100 investments in light industry, minor with 160, unbearable with 200 for instance. Additionally increasing the investment by too much in one turn (except for turn 1 of the game) increases corruption massively. Corruption also increases corruption, so at high levels you death spiral and your economy will collapse irreversibly.
There's a fun "exploit" you can do in this game with the Neocolonialism foreign policy, where you can generate massive sums of money in 1 turn by exploiting third world countries in your influence. This can then be invested into your own economy or as civil aid in other third world countries to prevent them from flipping to US influence. This is the most popular strategy for quickly defeating the US, as the US requires aligned countries in the third world to prevent it's indicators (economy, army, and population satisfaction) from dropping to zero. The only limiting factor is political power points.
Game name?
This game was for sure made by a Trotskyist.
I really want to enjoy this game but my God does it need a clear English guide or manual, there is so little clear information out there on how to play it. The mechanics are really obtuse and hidden from the player so trying to figure them out from gameplay alone is a struggle.
Why does he not tell the name
Of the game
What name of the game?
Crisis in the Kremlin
Warmed My heart when he converted the USSR to Islam.
I cheated and still lost money more rapidly than a NFT Bro
Why ruining though?
Day 82 of asking you to do a mega campaign from ck3 to hoi4
Play realms in exile mod for ck3
Running or ruining ?
Game name boys ?
Managed to convert to islam, and at one point supressed the maoists. Hence it's possible you could create Islamic Maoist Union of Soviet Socialist Republics.
Seems incredibly cursed.
Why cursed, sounds BLESSED
