A Game For All You Wannabe Politicians...

[Dexter]

This is a game hosted by another message board dedicated to the game 'Republic: The Revolution' (which is due out by the end of the summer).

The game has you basically joining a political faction of your choice and attempting to help that faction get the top job of President.

http://dynamic4.gamespy.com/~republic/board That's the URL for the board where you'll find the game. Before joining though please do read the constitution! The game is a little slow at first but we are hoping that new members who will post regularly will help bring the game a new lease of life.

Thanks very much,
Dexter

I've been waiting for a year for this monster. Mmmmmm.....

 

[Dexter]

Well this game is meant to act as something to whittle away to time until Rep:Rev's release.

I too am pretty excited for RR to get here, it looks like an absolutely awesome game!!

I thought this thread wasgoing to be about 'Political Tycoon'

I only heard good things about this game.Novistrana will be the most beautiful country in the world when ruled by me.

Unfortunately Republic: The Revolution stops once you gain the Presidency as that is the main objective. The game doesn't continue after that... well I guess thats what Civ is for

 

[Globber]

cool, but I still think Tropico is better

this looks fun. as for politics games, does anyone remember the old black and white "Hidden Agenda" where you were the president of some fictional south american country?

 

[amadeus]

Yeah, but I kept getting overthrown in a coup in the first few days.

I don't remember Hidden Agenda, but I do recall seeing a game of Junta played. It was almost as good as another political game (that I do have) -- Lie, Cheat & Steal.
