Every week is a plan

You get a budget, a staff, and eleven actions a week. Advertising, rallies, fundraising, field offices, opposition research, debate prep: every choice is a trade against the clock. The debate stumble, the October surprise, and the late polling swing arrive on schedule, because they really happened.

Six countries, six kinds of fight

American presidential duels are a race to 270. British campaigns are multiparty brawls where the winner needs a working majority, not a plurality. France runs two rounds, Germany counts coalitions, Canada and Australia have their own rules. The 34 scenarios span 1980 to 2024 and each system demands a different plan.

One daily challenge

Every day there is one featured scenario with a fixed seed: the same race and the same events for everyone who plays it that day, with a leaderboard to settle who ran it best. No account needed to play; scores need a login.

Common questions

What does it cost?

Everything is free to play while the game is in open beta.

How long is one campaign?

Most runs take twenty to forty minutes: a handful of weekly turns from the starting gun to election night.

Is it historically accurate?

Each scenario starts from the real polling, the real map, and the real candidates, and its events follow the campaign as it happened. What you do with that is up to you; rewriting history is the point.
