5 Games That Have You Playing As the President

The Political Machine 2016

The Political Machine 2016 is a simulation game that has you creating your very own candidate. Your main goal is to win over the hearts of the public by giving speeches and going on talkshows, all while hiring staff and managing your general team.

It’s obvious that The Political Machine 2016 is a slight parody of this year’s elections, but regardless, it’s still a surprisingly well-constructed simulation game that requires some tactical thinking and very basic political knowledge.
