Presidential: Run a Country

NEW IN 2.1 • Choose English, Indonesian, Brazilian Portuguese, Spanish, French or Arabic in Settings. • Preview regional investments and see what your country has built. • Find presidents, conversations and state visits in the redesigned World tab. You're handed a real country for one real week. Then the next player inherits everything you leave. Presidential is a multiplayer strategy game set in a shared world of all 193 UN member states. Your cabinet governs while you sleep, every decision runs on a clock, and you're scored against a caretaker, so a bad inheritance never counts against you. ONE WEEK IN OFFICE • Your term is seven real days. A game-day passes every 10 minutes, so one week holds nearly three years of budgets, borders and headlines. • Read your inauguration dossier and your predecessor's handoff note, then take the oath. • Decision cards land in your in-tray, each with a timer and real options. Decide in time, or your cabinet's pick takes effect. • See what a decision changes now and what it sets in motion over the coming game weeks, months and quarters. A CABINET THAT GOVERNS WHILE YOU SLEEP • Eleven advisers, from Finance and the Central Bank to Intelligence, each with a personality, loyalty and a memory of your decisions. • Set an autopilot mode, spending limit and posture. Routine calls are handled under your limit. Crises stay on your desk until their deadline. • Replace a minister who keeps steering you wrong. • With supported sign-in and your consent, ask ministers questions and receive AI replies grounded in your country's situation. Availability and usage limits apply. RUN THE COUNTRY • Set taxes, fuel subsidies, the minimum wage, capital controls and the exchange-rate regime. • Split the budget, issue bonds or buy them back, and start projects that outlast your term. • Trade 14 commodities, from crude oil to cocoa, in markets that react to embargoes, export bans and shocks. • Read briefings and travel through your country as the game calendar advances. DEAL WITH THE WORLD • Other seats are held by real players, AI presidents or caretaker cabinets. AI presidents are labeled. • Message other presidents and negotiate treaties. Sign, counter or decline offers in the conversation. • Write treaties clause by clause: tariff caps, supply deals, loans, aid, joint border commissions and council voting pacts. • Arrange state visits with other players. Both sides review the costs and agree before either treasury is charged. • Vote on Global Council motions, impose embargoes and decide what to do with intercepted intelligence. • Border disputes flare up and cool down. You negotiate, concede, stand firm or fix the cause. LEAVE IT BETTER • At handoff, an audit grades your fiscal health, reserves, stability, commitments and diplomacy. • Your legacy is measured against a caretaker running the same country from the day of your oath. • Write a note for your successor. Your grades and badges follow you to your record and the Hall of Presidents. • Share your presidency, country or finished term. Your public president page can be switched off in Settings. GOOD TO KNOW • Play as a guest with a handle. Sign in with Apple, Google or an email link to keep your president across devices. • AI conversations require Apple or Google sign-in and permission to send your messages and relevant game context to our AI provider. When AI replies are unavailable or a limit is reached, the app tells you. It does not substitute scripted chat replies. • Game outcomes are decided by the simulation. Everything is a game, not advice. • Optional notifications cover crises, messages, treaties and the end of your term. Choose categories and quiet hours. • Block players, report abuse and delete your account in Settings. • No ads or tracking. Requires an internet connection. Available on iPhone and iPad.
