The President Simulator

You are the President of the United States. The decisions are yours. So is the legacy. Take the Oval Office as any president in American history, or as one of your own, and govern through the real crises of their era. Washington faces the Whiskey Rebellion. Kennedy faces Cuba. You will face what they faced, and nobody hands you their answers. EVERY TERM IS A REAL ONE More than 1,300 hand-written events, including 440+ real moments from the historical record. Events are locked to their era, so a 21st-century tech scandal never lands on Lincoln's desk. What reaches you is what could plausibly have reached them. THE NUMBERS ARE WATCHING More than 20 national metrics move with every choice: approval, GDP growth, inflation, congressional support, media sentiment, polarization, nuclear tension. Push one and another gives way. No move costs nothing. BUILD YOUR ADMINISTRATION Appoint a cabinet. Manage a party that does not always agree with you. Hold the House, or learn to govern without it. REWRITE IT Play history as it happened, or take the other road. Every choice branches, and alternate timelines let you find out what the country becomes when the decision goes the other way. YOUR LEGACY, SCORED Finish your term and receive a full end-of-presidency report. 31 achievements track the ways a presidency can be remembered, and the ways it can be forgotten. 14 PRESIDENTS Washington, Lincoln, Theodore Roosevelt, Franklin D. Roosevelt, Truman, Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon, Reagan, Clinton, George W. Bush, Obama, Trump, Biden. Or create your own and take office today. NO ACCOUNT NEEDED No sign-up and nothing to log into.
