Mr President is a political simulator where you manage the U.S. presidency from 2001 to 2024. Developed by Exia Labs, it launched on January 26 2026 for PC. You handle legislation, foreign policy, and crises like 9/11 and pandemics. The game lets you negotiate with Russia and China while balancing budgets and public opinion. No co-op or multiplayer, just a solo experience where your choices shape global events. It’s a turn-based strategy game focused on policy decisions and reactive management.
Each session involves setting priorities like tax cuts or military spending, then dealing with weekly events. You draft bills, vote in Congress, and allocate resources to states. Crises pop up, responding to a terror attack requires selecting military targets or diplomacy. The UI is cluttered but functional, with menus for policies and real-time news updates. Military actions cost budget points and risk global backlash. Play sessions usually last 1-2 hours, though long-term goals take 10+ hours to achieve. The game rewards careful planning but punishes reckless decisions with economic or popularity slumps.
The game averages 4.2/5 from 8,300 reviews, with 65% completing the 2024 term. Players report 14 hours average playtime, peaking at 32 hours for full policy chains. Community moods are mixed: 52% love the historical accuracy, 31% hate the clunky UI. One review calls it "a fascinating sandbox for policy nerds," while another gripes, "too many sliders and not enough feedback." Achievement stats show 72% earn the "Nobel Winner" title for passing major legislation. Critics praise the depth but note it’s "overwhelming for newbies."
Worth it if you enjoy policy simulations or U.S. history. At $39.99, it’s a niche buy with 180 achievements to unlock. The learning curve is steep, but the payoff of steering national events feels rewarding. Skip if you prefer action or quick sessions. For fans of strategy and politics, it’s a 20-hour experiment in governance with no right answers.
