3rd world farmer, a politic game

This is really an amazing game I've just stumbled upon. 3rd world farmer puts you in the role of a family striving to survive from their farm in a 3rd world country.

I have yet to play a lot more of this interesting game, but from my first two games, I could feel the desperation of losing your livestock at the hand of greedy guerillas and the joy of having a splendid harvest (one of the rare positive events in the game). 

As simple and straight forward as the representation of the game is, the emotions and thoughts it evoke are really strong.
