Ever wanted a easy to use and customize political game? You've found it. I have tried to allow the user to have as much control as possible. You can create any candidates and opponents you want, you can customize the amount of voters from 10 voters to millions. (More on that later), the party composition of the voters, and the demographics of your voters.
Features:
Every voter in elections of 3,000,000 or less in Win The Election is an individual voter. They have priorities, policy preferences, trait preferences, and demographic preferences. Most political games use different ways to "simulate" who voters choose, but you will be able to see every registered voter in your election. Of course, it doesn't mean they will vote, you need to help influence them to make it out for election day.
The AI candidates follow the same rules as the player and present challenging opponents. You can have up to 19 opponents in an election.
You can have an election from 10 voters to 30,000,000. I've tried to optimize this process as much as possible, and even with millions of voters the turns are in seconds. Of course if you play a game with 20 candidates running for office the turn time does increase with each candidate. If you do choose an election that has more than 3,000,000 registered voters then there is a scaling system that simulates the additional voters.
Election night results come in precinct by precinct (or county by county), so you can see some wild swings that keep you guessing on who is going to win. State elections have been added to the game that uses real life data for counties and their party distributions.Â
After the election is over you can read the Election Analysis that gives you various statistics on how you won, or what might have cost you the election!
What the Game Isn't:
There are no 3D graphics or fancy political maps showing your color take over. There is no multiplayer as this is a single player experience.Â
