# Update v0.9.0.5 — Corruption Reduction & Balance
Corruption is no longer a one-way street! 8 new actions allow strategic reduction of the corruption index.
## New Actions
**Volunteer Work** (from Level 1)
Visit a playground, shake hands at a senior home. Reduces corruption by 2.
**Publish Transparency Report** (from Level 2)
Disclose your side income. Costs power, reduces corruption by 3.
**Charity Donation** (from Level 2)
10,000 euros to charity. Good press, corruption -2.
**Anti-Corruption Speech** (from Level 3)
Thunder against corruption in parliament. Corruption -4, but hypocrisy rises.
**Hire Compliance Officer** (from Level 3)
Hire someone to keep watch. Or pretend to. Corruption -5.
**Initiate Internal Audit** (from Level 4)
Show you're cleaning up — risky, because the audit might find you too. Corruption -6.
**Offer Witness Protection Deal** (from Level 4)
Throw a colleague under the bus. Corruption -8, but your network suffers.
**Found a Charity** (from Level 5)
A "non-profit" foundation. Costs 100,000 euros, reduces corruption by 10.
## Balance Changes
Employee allowance adjusted to reality: State Parliament 4,670 euros, Bundestag 22,800 euros
Fixed 5 actions with pointless power balance (cost = gain)
Leaderboard now shows your player name instead of a random ID
Player profile updates after game end
