The world is on fire. :( Anyway, while playing games and writing reviews here, I’m going to take a 100% politically neutral approach. I have plenty of political opinions, but these will not be mentioned here, and will not affect my reviews in any way.

Onto the game itself, you’ll have to deal with a linear array of scenes, handed to you in random order. Decisions made in these scenes may affect any number of four stats, which must be kept within certain levels to avoid a bad end. To get the good ending, you’ll need to complete all scenes without letting any of the four stats slip.

Other than the randomization, the gameplay is pretty straightforward. A lot of the jokes have a blustery feel, but just didn’t feel particularly humorous or witty. The writing is technically sound, but I don’t think the humor really worked for me here.

Honestly, if you want to read political commentary with an extra-large serving of satire or parody, you’ll probably find better content by reading a political blog or going on an online discussion forum. There’s more of this sort of stuff on the Internet than I can shake a stick at.

While we want to put something like Trump behind us, it's not easy. Humor can help. So can comparing him to a historical villain. I'm interested in other efforts that have a clearly Trump-ish character in them, whether skewering his...
