Kachur 112 Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 (edited) have you always wanted to run for office but don't have the Money or support to do it? Fan of politics and just looking for some fun? then lets do this. Option 1: I can create YOU or a "Character" of your choice, from stats, starting money, party, even you platform. then you would start in the primaries and compete against other peoples created players to try to win the nomination for President. every action needing to be smart and calculated. do you Fundraise or prepare for a debate? Target Iowa or send a spy to the others HQ. only you decide how you can try to achieve the goal. I would post weekly updates of everyone's characters and there Percentage's, how close they are to the nomination. any news stories that come up or anything relevant. and we go from there.

.sniffuM 1,741 Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 @ATST haven't heard anything about president infinity, but if you're interested in something similar, The Political Process is incredibly in depth and well reviewed (only does american politics though): https://store.steampowered.com/app/1184770/The_Political_Process/ Kachur 1 Link to comment https://vhlforum.com/topic/98552-lets-run-for-president/#findComment-817706 Share on other sites More sharing options...

.sniffuM 1,741 Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 Looks pretty cool, although the recurring fee kinda scares me. Maybe see if you have some more widespread interest and look into The Political Process some to see if it'll work well for what you're going for?

Garsh 1,190 Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 People here might also find this game interesting. It's thematically along the same lines but I think mechanics wise different.
