The Political Machine 2020

The Political Machine 2020 offers an opportunity to choose your preferred presidential candidate from Democratic figures such as Elizabeth Warren, Joe Biden, or Bernie Sanders, and Republican leaders like Donald Trump, George W. Bush, or Mike Pence. Or, if you desire, create your own candidate with eccentric and unique ideologies- even if it is banning all video games!

Experience the game with individuality, as each playthrough offers unique ideology trees using ideology points earned from participating in town hall meetings and other events where you can express ideas. Be able to claim critical topics, like Bernie Sanders' ownership over the "Medicare for All" initiative or Donald Trump's ownership over the "Build the Wall" notion. Winning electoral votes should be the end goal with an emphasis on particular topics for swing states as they can vary from Texas or California to Ohio or Florida.

Engage in numerous interviews to express opinions and to gain more support from the American public- all while purchasing ads to discredit your opponents and influence voters. The more enthusiastic your base is for a specific problem, the more persuasive your ad campaigns can be.

Play as a pre-existing candidate, each with unique skills such as stamina, intelligence, charisma, media bias, and more. Or, you can generate your front runner, enabling you to build your own campaign trail in the presidential race.

Budget management is crucial, and spending wisely is paramount in purchasing advertisements, traveling across the country to campaign, and hiring PR agents or sabotage operators to enhance your reputation or damage your opponent's image. Overspending can lead to unwanted consequences- like losing voters' trust in you!

The game features a profound underlying simulation model using real-life issues and generated census data to challenge your political aptitude.

Be ready for anything - unexpected events, like natural disasters, email scandals, or torrid affairs, can shape your campaign's direction for better or worse.
