I give it 2 stars only because the concept was good and correct but I hate it I love all the icivic games but just like all the others it's to short and not enough to do. Make one were you can do these things longer as a role play and with more to do. But I can't waste my phone space I played 2 times and won both and I'm board already that's not good.

Fun game but a bit simplistic once you play once or twice through. If you could try to run for office after passing a few bills or customize your account. It also would be interesting to have more depth in passing the law, maybe get to see the actual process? Send it back and work harder. Maybe include funding or backing from local? Doing something to have it be more community engagement equals better support and bonuses?

A great starting point to understanding US government, not too complicated, but not too simplistic. This encouraged me to look deeper into the inner workings of how legislature works. Play this before you play "Branches of Power." Playing this will help set you up for that game "Branches of Power" feature.

I think it was better before. Because you could make your own character like in win the white house and chose where he or she is from and chose if you want to be in the senate or the house. Also somethings it doesn't work when I'm making a list of who would support my bill the survey begins and the entire app stops.

Pretty good game. Kinda wish it had the option to continue playing from your reelection percentage to make the gameplay longer.

This game is one of the best. It really intails on how a US Representative's term goes. I wish there was another part of it like a Senator version. Like Counties Work, it has a Normal and a Texas version. In Law Craft. I would like to see a US Senator version as crafting laws goes through both houses of Congress and it would be interesting to see. I know Branches Of Power does that but for Law Craft. I would want to see it

Unfortunately, the new update isn't letting me sign in or even enter the game. I'm shocked because apparently no one else is having that problem. This is probably a good game but sadly, I can't give this game a good rating because I simply can't get passed the loading screen. What a shame!😞

It's very great and don't have ad in-game and also the Need to purchase anything it absolutely free! Sometime I wonder how you guys make money doing this but for sure you guys make us educated!

Terrible game. There desperately needs a lot more features. Also, the game is way too short that you could finish this game in 2 minutes.

This is the one of my favourite games of iCivic.I like making laws.But only a few laws are constantly repeating.I would like to have more issues and to make more laws.

Literally took me five minutes to beat a scenario.. good idea but lacks content and no real replay value.

Ell. V. O. Feb 8, 2022     

great game and I hope they add more to it than ending after 1 bill becoming law!

It's a good game but the only problem is that it's short just like your other games.

I think it is a kinda hard learning game but the kids will figure the thing out

A. G. u. Mar 18, 2019     

Educational games are hard to find but this a golden gate for the mind

Bri. D. Jul 14, 2020     

This is an o.k. game but I feel it could've been longer and more in-depth.

Lui. H. P. Jul 2, 2020     

Too short and the option to choose districts are not included

Cyn. S. May 8, 2022     

fun game helps children learn

Joh. S. Jun 6, 2020     

It's very one sided and it makes the Republican Party on the app seem competitive greedy while it makes the Democrats like caring generous people

Jus. P. Apr 4, 2021     

Not bad but the print is too small

Ali. A. Sep 24, 2021     

The words are far to small to read most of the game.

Can't open the game I can't touch the buttons
