Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“We believe the best way to make this game truly shine is to involve the community early. Early Access allows us to gather valuable feedback from real players in a real market environment, helping us refine gameplay, balance systems, and improve the overall experience. Your input will directly shape the future of the game.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We expect Early Access to last around 3–6 months. The exact duration may vary depending on player feedback and development progress, but our goal is to complete all planned core systems and content within this period.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“We plan to expand the game in the full version with:
- A more complex and expanded warfare system
- A deeper intelligence gameplay layer
- A greater variety of propaganda tools
- A more developed relationship and political networking system
We also aim to add more story events and branching endings, along with overall performance improvements and broader localization support.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current build already features the full core gameplay loop, allowing players to engage in political negotiations, policy-making, and event-driven decision-making.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“Yes. After Early Access ends, we plan to increase the price by 15-20% to reflect the additional content and improved overall quality.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We will actively involve the community through:
- Regular development logs and update previews on the Steam Community Hub
- Collecting and responding to player feedback and suggestions
- Inviting players to test new systems and features, with acknowledgments in updates
- Prioritizing development and improvements based on player experience data”

About This Game

Become President. Change the nation—or make it yours.

You are the newly elected President of the United States.

America in 2025 is tearing itself apart.

Ideological divides are deeper than ever.
People with opposing values no longer understand—let alone tolerate—each other.
Post-pandemic inflation and sky-high housing prices have crushed an entire generation.
Allies are greedy. Rivals circle like vultures. The public’s trust is fading fast.

They elected you to fix this mess.
But how will you answer their expectations?

Is eight years enough to rebuild America?

The U.S. Constitution limits you to two terms.
Can you restore the economy, calm the public, and eliminate your opponents in that time?
Or will you take a more... radical approach:

  • Change the law and extend your term in the name of “saving the nation”?

  • Seize control of media and the military to turn the republic into your personal empire?

  • Or perhaps—shed the illusions of democracy and take full control, all in the name of order?

🧠 Deep Political Simulation

Welcome to the White House. Let me walk you through how the machine works:

▶ Domestic Power Manipulation:

  • Congress: Elected by the people, yes—but loyal to money and threats. Bribe them. Blackmail them. Your call.

  • Capitalists: They can fund you or serve you—if you’re smart enough to use them.

  • Military Commanders: Loyalty is everything. Reward them well. When push comes to shove, no law is stronger than a bullet.

  • Federal Reserve Chair: Independent in name. But will they dare defy you when it’s time to slash rates and pump liquidity?

  • Propaganda System: Win hearts and minds—or flood them with fear until they obey.

▶ Foreign Trade & Diplomacy:

  • The global order is for sale: Use diplomacy or military pressure to squeeze economic concessions from allies and silence domestic dissent.

  • Divide and Conquer: Fan international tensions. Fuel foreign wars. Reap the rewards while others bleed.

  • Abandon all ideals: Rebrand your personal enrichment as “national interest.” If it’s well-packaged, no one will ask questions.

🗽 System Highlights

  • Hyper-Realistic Simulation: Driven by data from hundreds of millions of virtual citizens, grounded in modern political and economic theory.

  • 10+ Interwoven Systems: Legislation, propaganda, monetary policy, diplomacy, military operations, blackmail networks—tightly linked, dangerously fragile.

  • Opinion-Shaping Tools: Reshape beliefs through TV, internet, textbooks, exams, and more.

  • The Full Chain of Power: Economy → Public Opinion → Congress → Law → Military → Intelligence → Media—all at your fingertips.

  • Card-Based Negotiation: Engage in covert deals using threats, bribes, promises, and leverage cards to dominate the political arena.

  • Cascading Crisis System: Every choice can trigger strikes, scandals, regime changes, diplomatic meltdowns—there’s no safe path.

❓ You are the President, the player, and the puppet master.

Will you become a hero of the people—or a dictator for the history books?
Will you surrender power—or replace the flag with your own face?

But can you truly resist the temptation of power?

The choice is yours.
