Stand at the dispatch box and hackle the Leader of the Opposition. Sit in a House Committee and decide on the fate of Bills. Release press releases and communicate with the media. All from the comfort of your own home.
Politics UK is an online role playing game focusing on life in Parliament. Fancy being a Member of Parliament? Here’s your chance to do so. Like the real world, you can choose from the three major parties: the Conservatives, the Labour and the Liberal Democrats. Unlike the real world, you get to set the direction of the UK. And when election time comes, put on your thinking hat to prepare a manifesto and get ready to go and meet your voters.
Not comfortable with Westminster? Then cross over to the Atlantic. Washington D.C. Begin as a Representative (or Housie as they call ‘em) and fight your way through elections. Debate on committee and vote on Bills. With an advanced date and setting, you can go anywhere and cause any result. Open up your District Office and a Press Office. Visit other Members of Congress in their Offices. With a game like this, you can become Senator, Governor and even the President of the United States of America. All these in United States Government Simulation.
An affiliate of Politics UK is Politics Canada. They just restarted and the game is set in 1963. Join the Progressive Conservatives, the Liberals, the National Democrats or the Social Credit and set the course of Canadian history. Choose a riding to represent and relive history as you make it. Pass laws and defeat Bill.
These simulations have been on going for over 5 years. Rarely suffering from player inactivity, it can be addictive. Don’t waste time just reading. Try them and you won’t regret it.
