Starting the Game

The game Four Horsemen came up in the Woke Franchises thread here. I found it interesting, picked it up, and now I'm here to report to you: is this game broke and woke, or is there something more to this game?
Initial thoughts:
* The UI is basic and not exactly impressive. If you told me this was made in Ren'Py (popular Python based visual novel engine) I'd believe it, but that's not a bad thing. I'd rather small indie developers just use a quality free game engine like Ren'Py so they can focus their full efforts on the actual game rather than them try to create an original engine or work with something harder and it come out as a glitchy mess.
*When you start the game, it gives you an option of where to start. The only recognizable option is the Federated Islamic Republic of the Greater Levant. Not exactly a good sign (insert Rick & Morty "Unsolicited Opinions About Israel" joke here). Especially when all the other country locations are made up; it really stands out.
I'll go there. What could go wrong? Who knows, maybe it'll be realistic!
