Liberal Crime Squad (LCS)

Liberal Crime Squad is a satirical open-source text-based modern strategic political RPG with bad pickup lines and bad graphics. You play as the founder of a left-wing terrorist cell devoted to saving the United States from its descent into Conservative Insanity though writing to newspapers, volunteering, playing protest music, seduction, flag burning, graffiti, hacking, kidnapping, torture, murder, brainwashing, and other common and uncommon activist activities.

-ORIGINAL VERSION- https://www.bay12games.com/lcs/ v3.09, Copyright (c) 2002-6, Tarn Adams (Toady One)

To some a dream come true, to others an offensive piece of crap. Inspired by Oubliette, the 1983 game.

WARNING: The scope of this game is narrower than that of real life. We have attempted to include foul language, graphic violence, politics, religion, sexual references, adult situations, narcotics, prostitution, bodily functions and bad pickup lines, but Bay 12 Games recognizes that there might be omissions which will make some players uncomfortable. In light of these facts, use your discretion when making decisions about downloading LCS.

This version of Liberal Crime Squad includes changes such as small bug fixes, game mechanic tweaks so that it plays better, and new features, such as the new Augmentation system!

The NoMusic download is "the version with midi music instead of the much larger ogg files. This is why the NoMusic filesize is 3 MB instead of ~70 MB"
