This is an interesting and fun game. However, it is only about 40 minutes long since you can only play for 4 years, even if you get reelected, and after 1 playthrough it gets pretty repetitive. I would recommend this game to anyone looking for a quick little management game that won't take too much time out of your day.

Love it! like I do most of the icivics games. Only reason I docked a star is that I ran into a problem where in emergency situations I'd take things to the right dept and the task would still fail. Not sure if its a bug or if those events are meant to have rng with failure as a possibility but it was frustrating.

it's good! really entertaining and informative. however, i find that the customers are a little impatient! it's probably realistic to be quite honest, but it's still really stressful and rather frustrating.

Good but they should work on the long term progress, i mean the game should not be about just 4 years, if player win the election, the game should go on, not just end there

Excellent Game Should allow for re-election and expansion of county territory... It would also be nice to see once you get to a bigger population that the city incorporates itself and maybe you manage multiple cities...

Plays way too fast and easy. I finished the game before two hours for it. I think that there should be more ways to add the different construction projects.

Okay this is a quite good game the reason why I rated a four-star is because it is really hard to do and not only that it is has some bogus still and well yeah just got to point that out but you should be updating it hopefully soon

It's a good game but there needs to be more to it. Be able to run for re-election and continue making a bigger impact on the people's lives.

Can't you add election and opposition party in it as Well.... If that happens them the game will be completely awesome

Spe. E. Mar 17, 2021     

Five star game, I Just wish that the makers of the game would do a counties work for every state. I also wish that the componoy would do a game where there is every government position and you could run and if you win you get to do the duties of that Job. For example jobs like President, Vice President, Senate, House, SCOTUS, Governor, Lt Governor, State senate, State House, Mayor of a city or town or County, City or County Council, City Or County Commission. That would be awesome.
