In Workers & Resources: Soviet Republic, the player works towards building a self-sufficient republic by constructing Buildings, Utilities, Infrastructure, and other construction projects. There are two ways to complete a construction project:
Funding with currency
Construction with resources
The cheapest way to build the republic is for the player to build everything himself using construction facilities and the proper resources.
