About

POLITICAL ARENA is a one-of-a-kind strategy/sim sandbox about American politics. 

Seek fame or infamy in a richly simulated political world, complete with high stakes legislative strategizing, backroom deals and the press. Customize and play as the politician of your dreams (or nightmares).

CUSTOMIZE

  • Tailor your politician’s appearance, personality, views, ideology, influence, skills and agenda. 

  • Customize the partisan breakdown of congress, the president’s party and ideology, what the filibuster threshold is and just how partisan and ideological the world is. See how these settings impact outcomes and your style of play.

MAKE AN IMPACT

  • Make your agenda a reality by drafting bills impacting dozens of policies.

  • Lobby the White House to see your agenda placed front and center, even being featured in the Inauguration and State of the Union. 

  • Work behind the scenes to secure votes for your legislation and lobby for your bills, even during a vote.

A DYNAMIC WORLD

  • Each NPC’s agenda and personality shapes their behavior: how likely they are to break promises, remember their friends, punish their enemies. 

  • NPCs evolve over time, cultivating alliances, grudges and reputations.
