    It is, unironically, 'just communism'.

    First thing I noticed is you have three currencies when building, Rubles, Dollars, and Build With Resources (i.e. local labor, equipment, and materials).

    The train system can be finicky but at least it has a very detailed railroad system, it is almost 1/3 the gameplay.

        Not really, you can select how you want to fund your building projects. From the wiki

        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.

          Funding with currency is importing resources and labour (and in non-realistic mode, importing magic labour that doesn't need transporting to site). It doesn't really affect your internal "market".
