The President (2018)

[b]It's election time![/b] Time to choose who's going to run the country. Will they bring prosperity to an ailing economy, will they to go to war, will they reduce military presence, will they bring better health care and schooling, or will they make cut backs? Have you ever thought, I could run the country better? Well here's your chance to prove it in this political strategy game. You play as Tom Reed, a rising star who reached the top of the Democratic Party, now the youngest President of the Republic of Dora. As a small country of around 12 million people, how hard can it really be if Donald Trump is President of the US of A? You start by choosing the ministers for Labour, Environment, Defense, Justice etc. From there you'll be able to choose which policies you would like to put forward for legislation. This takes a month or two and not all policies can be selected due to either time restrictions or lack of funds in the treasury. Each policy will show you whether you’re able to put it forward for voting, and above each policy page you'll see the different parties and the number of members they have in each.

It ends way to fast, you get impeached so fast you barely even started the game, then you cant even choose the policies you want for some reason nor can you whip the parliament or meet with the leaders. You just have to sit there and just wait and try to survive. This game is not fun at all.

The President is a strategy/career simulator as you control the President and make various decisions based on RNG events. The game is essentially text only with a few icons and the occasional bar graph. The reality here is that there's no real game, no real graphics, the whole thing could be done in HTML. It belongs in a web browser, not on Steam. The numbers and clicking through events are tedious and RNG rules the day regardless of what you do. It's a poorly thought out, poorly implemented, and poorly balanced game. The $11.50 price tag is an insult considering the low quality. I can't recommend it.

Meh
