>The description says it will try to 'tackle the issues of 2020'
Gonna take a completely blind guess that the author thinks the pressing issues of 2020 are political correctness and riots, and that naturally this is exactly the same as Stalinism.
Is there anything more midwit than using Orwell to discuss politics? Christ.

no

Why does it have anime style visuals?

That just looks like a contemporary western style to me, though granted there has been a heavy Japanese influence.

>I wonder if it will be in favour of libertarian socialism
Why would it be? The game is based on an anti-communist book

Figures. The fact they had the persmission of the Orwell estate just makes it more damning.

I pirated it and tried to play, but all three times I played it Snowball was exiled from the farm by Napoleon after proposing the windmill and things deteriorated from there. Also, the game basically portrays all of the pigs as pretty hypocritical and malevolent, rather than having Snowball as a 'counterweight' and basically gives the impression that animal farm sucks and it was better when the farmers ran things. I'm sure it's possible to win but after 2.5 plays I don't really wanna put in the effort to do more. It's also VERY repetitive. Overall, a 4/10.
