Is e-Republik still relevant today, after ten years?

I started playing in late 2009 and it was quite revolutionary strategy click-once-per-day web game. It's interesting, that game didn't move to mobile platform as PWA? Tech stack would remain same, maybe some redesign of game's web design, to accommodate on mobile devices. And some extra bits in html and JavaScript, so that both mobile platforms (Android, iOS) can recognize as applications.
For instance ever popular Instagram and Tinder are actually webpages accommodated as application using PWA parameter magic. Same could be done with our beloved e-Republik game.

Would userbase rise if game was reissued to mobile devices? Just my two cents.

Thanks for reading. Please leave comment, if you agree, disagree, or something to add. Maybe you have better idea how to poetically involve this game. See ya! 🙂

There's a saying in my country "reluctant to die, but doesn't want to live"

It's like this erepublik. I dont think the developer would invest a significant effort to redesign this game.

How times fly by. Thanks for the tip. I have checked and it is still in early beta. I believe (I must find some free time) that mobile app is separate game with slightly different rules. Or is it same game but on mobile?

I didn't notice, there is early beta on Google Store from eRepublik Labs, app called eRepublik. 🙂
I'll test it soon to find out, wheather is same game or new type of game.

I also found on phone store similar game called Rival Regions. 🙂
