This is honestly my new favourite game! I thought I wasn't going to like it but something about the visuals and the concept forced me to buy it on sale. 100% worth the money. I just finished having Joe Biden run against Jill Stein (as a republican), so you aren't necessarily beholden to a realistic scenario. There is actually a surprising amount of depth in what I thought was going to just be a silly couple hours of fun and while I am still learning the ropes, it doesn't feel like a stupidly steep learning curve (cough cough any paradox game). You can choose past presidents as well all the way back to Eisenhower. I will say that I would have liked more contemporary options and some lesser known politicians, but maybe that can happen in a future DLC. Strongly recommend buying this game! You won't regret it.
