About this game

Is the next member of Congress a werewolf? Can you survive a lycanthrope's bite? There’s no silver bullet for winning an election!

"Congresswolf" is an interactive novel by Ellen Cooper, where your choices control the story. It's entirely text-based--140,000 words, without graphics or sound effects--and fueled by the vast, unstoppable power of your imagination.

"Democracy must be something more than two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for dinner." -- James Bovard

When a werewolf murders your boss, you must step up to run a Congressional campaign all on your own. While werewolves, protestors, and worse--the media--lurk around every corner, you'll use everything you can to get your candidate elected.

Email servers? Tax returns? Who cares. Election-season secrets and October surprises are nothing compared to the possibility that your candidate might be a werewolf...or that you might become one yourself.

Ratings and reviews

I've loved all the games so far from you and was even more excited for this one! Until I read a line about the Congressman/woman's romantic partner. I thought he/she (depending who your playing) would be one of the relationship options? It sort of made it seem like that was possible, and would be a great addition if you ever updated it, please consider! Plus, checkpoints! A chapter index for easy replaying!

I enjoy a good text adventure now and then. Good to know my octo-core graphic wonderphone hasn't completely crippled my imagination. Congress wolf is fairly straightforward. That is, no major plot twists, shocking reveals, or red herrings. Yet, it is compelling enough (70%) to allow the story unfold at a leisurely pace. I've replayed it twice in an attempt to "break it" for more extreme gameplay. No go.

I actually purchased this book. If you like politics and being a campaign manager with the twist of werewolves than this is the game for you. The writing and grammar is good, the plot is a bit of a bore. The game has a finance management aspect that I am not a huge fan of in these games. After reading this I felt their were some plot holes, the ending doesn't tie up all the loose ends. I don't want to give any spoilers out. Literally campaign manager simulation with werewolves rights mixed in.
