Sun Feb 17 2019 andyv18I love the game, I play it all day. BUT would be better to add more laws, I know the creator might be working on it but I'm just going to give some possible laws, like for example corporate tax, payroll tax and inheretance tax. Given those possible laws that would make a greater income, I can't come with laws that would make spending bigger. But I would also like a law that would extend the elections more (like each 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or even 6 years like in many countries). Another thing it would be awesome when starting a game to select either a parliamentary democracy (like how it is) or a democracy like in the US, with the President, Senate, and a House of Relresentatives, and also a Supreme Court, in which you can make the Senate, House of Representatives, Supreme Court, or even the Parliament (if you are playing a Parliamentary democracy) more bigger, like the Parliament from 24-60, 80, or even 100 seats. It would also be fun to add a map of the country with the regions to show the election results, and add district for election (instead of being a at-large representative election). And, last but not least, it would be great, for example if you control most of the parliament, and you have all the laws you want passed, you DON'T want anything changed, so if the opposition wants to add or remove a law, there could be a botton to make your representatives vote NO automatically.
Thanks, I hope you take some of these ideas into consideration!
More options
Wed Apr 29 2020 expert malcolmI love this game! But, it could use more options in addition to the already many options such as minister positions. Also if the country government setup was specified to each country or just major countries instead of each country having parliament. Also try adding options for diplomacy between the nation leaders and even options to join different alliances than just NATO which also adds the option to vote the leader of that alliance and even set alliance policies to be more realistic. Also add another category that is for the number of military personnel for when you add the option of war. Then add more advanced options for corruption related things. Also please add a world map that shows the other countries. Also make it so that if in war your nation wins or looses then you get negative and/or positive effects. Thanks!
A Fun Time
Mon Jun 24 2019 Horrorland01Simply put this is a entertaining game. The full version is loaded with features and really puts you in the shoes of a government representative. What should you vote on? Should you vote what you believe or vote what will get you more popular? I would recommend this game for anyone looking to spend a few bucks on a game that will draw you in and having you playing for hours at a time. There’s nothing like trying to lead the country and balance your power at the same time. I look forward to more updates to the game.
It’s be crazy cool to have a full 100 representatives (Senators) when playing as the United States (and as a side bonus having the state they represent by there name). And do similar things for the other countries. Just small details like that I think would make a more immersive experience.
Great Game for the Political Junkie!
Sat Jul 27 2019 AnarchoKittie271I find this game consuming me everyday! Great political simulator that really encapsulates the daily struggles of leading a political party in the 21st century. With a wide selection of countries and parties to choose from, this game certainly does not disappoint.
I would really like some more bill updates in the future and more dynamic elements to be added soon, like a cabinet, world map and diplomacy options. One area this game really falls short in is with the population. The laws passed don’t seem to affect the population’s favor with a party very well and at times, the polling can feel sporadic, but all in all it’s a great game!
Addicting and fun!
Tue Oct 29 2019 CyopathicI actually found this gem on Steam. My computer had needed to be fixed after the power supply went out. I really missed playing Lawgivers and found it here on the AppStore.
Now I can play on the go and also at home since my computer is up and running again. Even though this game is still in development it feels like a finished product with more improvements underway.
I would definitely recommend this game for your inner politico.
Very entertaining
Sat Dec 07 2019 Peyton FaucettSimple enough for someone who’s not into politics to understand yet entertaining enough for someone who’s very into politics as well. Highly recommend. Just a few suggestions though.
- A few parties missing
Like Mélenchon’s in France and FdI in Italy. Not a big problem though, because you have the ability to add parties yourself
- Acronyms too short
Self explanatory. The ability to create acronyms longer than 4 letters would be nice.
- Nationalist parties
What is the point of parties like the SNP or the BQ if Scotland and Quebec cannot get independence? And their support is often too high. Sometimes the SNP will win 20% of the vote. There should be some sort of independence mechanic.
- Independents
When a member of parliament leaves a party, they should become an Independent and remain in parliament until the next election or potentially afterwards.
Those are all minor concerns though. This is by far one of the best government simulation games out there.
Sequel Idea?
Sun Mar 31 2019 DarkUrakkaAmazing game! Definitely a political simulator worth checking out and supporting. Would love more options though, like possibly creating a government from the bottom up? Start off after a revolution/civil war where the country is in anarchy, and you must create a new government to run the country. And add the war feature, where foreign countries are trying to take over your land and you must defend it while building a new country.
Fun, but!
Thu May 27 2021 jver425I really enjoy this game. By and large the mechanics are really good - even if the AI behavior doesn’t really make sense. My biggest issue just comes down to the very obvious hardcore right wing perspective this game is made from. A lot of the effects and supporters of different policies don’t actually make sense unless viewed through the prism of Dinesh D’Souza-type conservatism. This also goes for the budget function. I would prefer if the game were more consistent and more realistic. All that said, once you’re familiar with how it works it is fun.
Suggestions and possible add ons
Tue Oct 25 2022 shhdhdjejduI absolutely love this game because I am such a political junkie but I think there are some things that are missing that you should add on such as having the Presidents have there own individual election frequency that should happen every 4 years 2 years 6 years or 1 year.
And I think that you should add a Vice Presidents post.
Needs much better documentation
Fri Feb 28 2020 FoxfilesI regret buying the full version without spending more time in the Lite game. Had I done so I might have seen how sparse the instructions are. The tutorial is quite slim, the help boxes also; there’s hardly anything explaining a lot of the mechanisms in the game. I’ve had to learn mostly thru trial and error, which can sorta be sorta fun in its own right, but unfortunately not in this game. It’s hard to develop any strategy when you can’t even tell what effect your decisions have. Oh well. 😔
