Really nice work! I love how you transposed modern farcical politics onto game mechanics, and I think your descriptions of the various scandals are entertaining enough to keep the game engaging for as long as it needs to be.

Nice game, I like the concept its really unique. Rated it! If possible do rate and play my game :)

Scored 15 on the first run. Great connection to the theme. Well thought out. Loved the feedback given when playing the wrong card + the quality of life decision to highlight playable cards. The following formulation was not clear to me: “get two of the last card you played” - I expected to get the last two (possibly different) cards I played back, rather than two copies of the last card. At times I felt like I was fully stuck, overall, the player does not seem to have much control over the game, although it is enough to influence the outcome a little. Maybe that’s a life lesson about being a public figure in politics?

The game we submitted has a bit similar vibes I feel, I’m curious what you think :D

Wow this has been my favorite game so far! I'm usually not interested in card games but this one's pretty cool :D I'm surprised it doesn't have more ratings by now (now that I see, adding some art so more people are inclined to click on the game, would be a good idea) :O 

Very good job, would love to see a more polished version (specially artwise) in the future! 

Best of luck! 

(Also, if you could rate my game that would be awesome :) )

i was not a good politican, but i got rich in that time

super cool card game idea :)

This is very relevant. I found it humorous how true this rang, and the idea that politicians can keep getting away with what they do based on the shuffle of cards is a great allegory. The aesthetics are nice and clean, readable, and they get the job done. The writing is great, and you came up with a lot of clever uses for the cards, and the summaries of the controversies contrasting with the card descriptions match very effectively.

The game is a tad simple. That doesn't mean there isn't potential -- there very much is -- and it's understandable that you couldn't make a full CCG in seven days, but I think highlighting which cards would work for the controversy was too much. I wanted to be able to figure out which card would work best, and perhaps be penalized when I chose one that wouldn't work. I also think showing the exact numbers takes it away a little bit. Maybe instead of having to-the-digit stats, say "publicity: low/med/high," and then have card descriptions that say, "low/med/high effectiveness against publicity," or something like that. That would make me think about which card I chose a lot more.

You have a very strong foundation, though, and I love the idea. Congratulations and keep it up. Well done.

The gameplay was very good and the sound made everything even better! I really enjoyed the game!

The most realistic politics sim I have ever played, I just kept printing money without no consequences. I feel just like Joe Biden!
