GovSim: Political Simulator

NK Games Studio

About this game

Take office in one of 17 nations. Set the income tax, fund the hospitals, police the streets, calm the markets — and face the voters before the term runs out.

GovSim is a full political simulation: a living web of 300+ policies, 150+ national statistics and situations, 20 voter blocs and 2,000 simulated citizens. Every policy you touch ripples through the economy, the crime rate, the environment and the mood of every voter group — tap any circle to see exactly what causes it and everything it changes.

🎛️ GOVERN BY SLIDER
Over 300 policies across seven departments — taxes, economy, welfare, public services, law & order, foreign policy and transport. Every change costs political capital, and your cabinet only generates it while ministers stay loyal.

🕸️ EVERYTHING IS CONNECTED
Raise the petrol tax and motorists fume, emissions dip, bus use climbs, the treasury smiles. The whole simulation is one connected web you can inspect at any time — no hidden dice, just cause and effect.

👥 PLEASE SOME OF THE PEOPLE
Socialists, capitalists, liberals, conservatives, the faithful, patriots, environmentalists, motorists, farmers, parents, the retired, the young, the poor, the wealthy… every voter belongs to several blocs at once, with their own income, compass and grudges. Every fix for one group is a wound to another.

💰 THE BUDGET IS DESTINY
Deficits become debt, debt wrecks your credit rating, interest eats your budget. Print money if you dare — inflation is watching. AAA to junk in a few careless years.

🏛️ FACE A REAL OPPOSITION
A named rival leader campaigns on your weakest numbers, monthly polls track the race, and street voices tell you exactly which voter is done with you — and why.

🗳️ WIN RE-ELECTION (OR ELSE)
The last six months are the campaign: commit a manifesto, hold rallies, survive the TV debate, and decide whose donor money to take — their asks come due at the ballot box. Choose two- or three-party politics, FPTP or PR; in a coalition, the junior partner tables demands and can bring the government down.

🛡️ SURVIVE THE CONSEQUENCES
Neglected anger radicalizes into pressure groups, plots and — if your security forces are asleep — assassination. Multi-stage crises (a pandemic, a bank run, a drought, a border standoff) end well only if you built the country that can take the hit. Ministers get caught in scandals; sink low enough for long enough and your own party moves against you first.

📜 LEAVE A LEGACY
Every policy, headline and crisis lands on your run's timeline. When it ends, the legacy report charts your years in office — and mints a challenge code any friend can replay, same nation, same dice.

🌍 17 NATIONS, ONE ENGINE
From the United States to Bulgaria, each nation starts with its real-world flavor: its own policies in force, strengths, crises, voting system and difficulty.
