I enjoyed playing this game, but it just feel too easy in a way. I easily got 100% approval and 100% agenda. I wish the game play was slightly longer where the years take longer to complete. I also don't understand the war. I did every action correctly as well as the diplomacy, yet it was still solved "slowly" I also kinda wished the game allowed us to run for re-election.

You can and should play it once! It's lite too, it's short time game with adddictive events at the time we play it! Great experience! I thought i could visit each department any time to discuss or make a speech to improve that sector, selling with passing bills! But still it was great!!! Story line, congress speech, news, etc and all available features are great and really was a unique experience!

A game full of potential but unfortunately falls short. The concept of this game and the actual gameplay are both interesting and fun but I would recommend not bothering. The game takes about 30 mins to complete and gets a little tiresome and repetitive at times. I found it ridiculous after completing the 4 year term that you cannot continue for reelection.

Great game!! It has great scenarios and challenges. One thing I want to add in this game is the voice of the people, like in the other games for yours. And also add some situations like a typhoon where you will visit some area in your country and some situations that happens to every country. This is a great game!!

The game concept is awesome, but I'm a little disappointed by the execution. Why, even though I made all military actions correctly (as per the final certificate), did the war resolve itself "slowly"? It doesn't make any sense. I would also like it to be a bit more challenging, the bad laws were so obvious. On top of all this, the game doesn't have much to offer. It's just one term, but there could be so much more! Add more story to it. I was never bored, but never overwhelmed, that was good.

Policies and agenda bill are too obvious, it gives you a bad or good one to pick and it's not fun. You dont have to use your brain to think which to pick. Also it is way too short, add some random events in and allow us to re-elect for lot longer. It's a shame, I enjoyed it but way too short. Lots of potential

This game is pretty good, i mean the controls can be a little be annoying but other than that, this is a great game to play especially if you're just killing time or waiting. Its not that special but it still very good, i really enjoyed playing it, the gameplay was nice and simple and there are little to no ads and its overall just a good game. Go download it and check it out yourself!

Western imperialist propaganda, aside from that the game is very simple. There's no complexity and it's easy to finish with perfect score. You play it for 45 minutes and then uninstall.

The game is a pretty interesting one. Being a president for 5 years (in game time) is pretty fun and pretty interesting. But my problem is the game is pretty short. Like seriously, i finished one run for 40 or so minutes and that is 5 in game years xD. Other than that though the game is nice. It's a bit difficult to understand at first. But if you play the game long enough you'll get the hang of it. I recommend playing this game, it's pretty fun, I'm looking forward for the future of this game

Excellent Game The only thing I wish this had is the opportunity to run for a second term and maybe combining the games where you run for president with this one would be great. I'd also like the ability to focus on multiple things at once and have a complete agenda versus focusing on one topic.

Pretty easy, straight forward game. Took about an hour or so to complete. Not much replayability. Reduced a start to the obvious left leaning bias of the game. Checking out the other apps by the developer to see if the bias continues.

It's OK at best. If you have a certain approval percentage you should get a 2nd term. You can only choose 1 issue to focus on the entire 4 year term. Always going to have war between year 2 and 3

This game is fun at first but it does get boring. But over all improving options and making it to we're you can get reelected would be fun and more realistic (considering that the president if they we're really liked could be reelected). Also this game could use more character design things.

A very good, educational and at the same time quite simple simulator of a presidential race. I especially like the descriptions of party values and voice acting! Keep it up, I wish you success in your new future games!

Fun very fun and educational I have played a few years ago and happen to stumble across while searching for Star Wars games. For parents this game is very child friendly and educational I learned a lot from it and I thought I knew a lot about what the president does already before I played. I recommend this for any kid who wants to learn about The Presidents job. I experienced no bugs or glitches when I played the only thing is it lagged a little bit but it is a good game for kids period.

I agree with the other comments you developers make it too easy to win and I agree that with "Executive command " you should be able to go for re-election and make your own cabinet and department heads and I would allow player to see who they want to go to war with. But over all it a pretty good game

Good quality but I completed it in just an hour then it resets. Maybe they should add a multiplayer option where you compete against other country rulers.

I thought this was a good game. It is definitely educational and helps young people understand some of the processes of our government. The down side from an educational prospective is the lack of a budget or price tag for laws. Sure, the world would be all sunshine and rainbows if money were unlimited, unfortunately in reality, tough choices have to be made so that even "good policy" has to be vetoed sometimes.

I want this game to be long and long and long... Make it a big game, it'll be a great one. I also congratulate the entire icivics team for such innovative games and ideas... All you need to do is to create a big mainstream game fully playable by options and sandbox type environment

Luc. D. May 2, 2022     

I like it, but it is just the same thing, do the events, enter war with a random country, complete it. So please add more events, it's getting kind of boring already.

Pol. Jan 5, 2020     

Short but very sweet, this game is a joy to play every time but still gets old eventually. Definitely add more features and everything, I can't wait to see this game's potential make it something even better.

Adr. May 11, 2022     

This is a really good game I even repeat the story 6 times!! But the story is to short! I hope there will be more updates in the future thank you for making this game :)

Fal. S. May 21, 2020     

This game is amazing .I love the game. I would like to give some advice that there should be 4 things to be added. 1) Make elections for the president's post. 2) Allow the President to make own laws or acts. 3) Allow the President to make his own committee of head of departments. 4) Include some more problems and situations like spread out of diseases. This would make your game a blockbuster. It would be thankful to you.

The main issues with this game are the lack of things to do and the offensive term "Indian American," which needs to be changed to Native American. Other then that, though, it's alright if you want to kill time.

Rad. k. Mar 15, 2022     

Simple game that have all good stuff to be a usa.P but it will be more cool to expand the game more and have realistic graphics +maybe a new steam PC paid game....

Sym. I. Apr 18, 2022     

The game is great but I wish you could. run for reelection and ACTUALLY end the war, I got 100% Approval and 100% Congress Approval, I did most of my laws correct but I still couldn't end the war no matter what so please make new updates

Ala. I. Jan 8, 2020     

Unimaginative and stale, beyond showing the very basics to middle schoolers, this app offers no game or challenge. You have no real goals: all choices are obvious, gameplay is repetitive, and your decisions have no effect on the gameworld.
