Set against the backdrop of real-life events, the game captures an era when corruption, crime, and political intrigue shapes the nation’s destiny.
In Vivat Slovakia, players step into the shoes of a secret police officer working undercover as a taxi driver in a meticulously reconstructed 10-square-kilometer version of 1990s Bratislava.
The game takes players deep into the city's criminal underworld, where alliances between government officials and crime bosses were forged in secrecy and businessmen conducted dealings in the shadows. Each mission peels back another layer of truth to its lingering mystery, revealing stories that are rarely explored, even by Western media.
They can navigate through a highly detailed recreation of the city, tackle true crime missions inspired by real events. This includes a presidential kidnapping as well as driving over 50 iconic vehicles unique to the period. The gameplay also includes opportunities to go beyond the primary missions, allowing players to master street racing, run smuggling operations, or simply escape to tranquil fishing spots.
"This is the game we always wanted to make—a story about the city we grew up in, during its most dramatic transformation," said Roman Lipka, producer at Team Vivat. "We’re not inventing tales; we’re telling them.
The missions, characters, and even the vehicles you drive are all based on real events and items from the era. The response has been phenomenal, with positive reviews on Steam and growing international attention confirming that this authentic experience resonates far beyond Slovakia."
Now that the English Version is available on Steam, international fans have reviewed the game positively. It currently stands at a ‘Very Positive’ rating on Steam from over 300 reviews. Players were excited to finally play and understand what the game is all about. Others also compare Vivat Slovakia to open-world crime games such as the Mafia series and the Grand Theft Auto series.
Vivat Slovak is now available on Steam Early Access. The developers are encouraging more players to join its growing community and explore the richly detailed chapter of Slovak history.
