Default Political Simulation

I'm looking for a real good Shadow President- (or better) styled political simulation, but not necessarily plainly that (mixed genre, or anything), mixed adventure/strategy, just shoot.

I am not a games expert, but I am sure there're a lot in here.

How odd, no one at all?

Fact is there aren't that many similar games. In the near future we'll upload a game called Crisis in the Kremlin.

On AB we have Hidden Agenda and Yes Prime Minister. I didn't play them so I don't know how similar they are.

If I find more, I'll post later

Edit: And I almost forgot, from the newer ones you could check Stardock's Political Machine

Ah, Yes Prime Minister! That's a good one (although a bit old ).

I've played Hidden Agenda, but never really truly got the hang of all of it...

I've also played Crisis in the Kremlin. It's very hard to play, I learned in the end, but no matter what I do, I cannot seem to be "winning" - only prolonging my inevitable defeat (which sometimes comes early, sometimes late). I could upload it, if that's how things function in here...?

Also, about the Political Machine, that's an online multiplayer game...

Well, The Political Machine includes multiplayer, but is mainly singleplayer.

And if you played the other games as well, it means you know better the genre than me. I don't think there are much more games similar to this, but I'll try to find.

Crisis in the Kremlin is ready to be added, the question is when. You don't need to upload the game.

How about Balance of Power and its 1990 remake, which we have on Abandonia.

There is also the Power Politics series and the SuperPower series?

I've tried to get a hold of Power Politics, but I cannot find it (in any way at all). :embarassed:

I've got the Political Machine 2008 Express. It appears to only feature multiplayer.

You can use the "Requests" forum section and see if anyone else has it.

Chris Crawford has released Balance of Power: 21st Century. It's visually underwhelming, but it's not too bad, and at least worth a look. It's also free.
