President Elect, page 1

This was an old computer game way back in the 80s. It was a game that simulated a Presidential Election. I miss this game and had a lot of fun with it.

It would first ask you a series of questions to see where you stood on the left or right paradigm. For example, it would ask if you believed that Christians should have more rights than anybody else. If you said yes, it would add a point or two towards the left. If you said no, it would add a point towards the right.

And when the questions were done, it would tell you where you fit by percentages. Such as say 76% Democrat 34% Republican.

Then during the election you got a certain amount PAPs to do things with, and during the campaign it would ask you how much time you would spend on a certain action. Such as 80% attacking your political opponent 10% positive ads towards you.

When you were done with the campaign it would determine who got the electoral votes and which state voted for you and who got to be President.

It was a pretty good old game.

I don't think it'd even run on today's computers.

Anyhoo, here's the wiki on it:

So have you ever played this game?
