I love the idea, campaign sims are the best types of games.  The AI is really bad, and it uses water. You increase t he complexity and make different play styles based on the voters you want to court and build a custom coalition. Even the non-ai version is pretty bad, it doesn't have any back bone. I will admit the map looks good though and I like the primary system.

This is because this game is free, so I have to pay for the AI usage by myself, and since I make no money of off this game, I can't afford better AI models. My time and money, is now being spent on the steam version of the game. However I can fix the bug with the AI giving the wrong feedback. If you want a "backbone", I would suggest the steam version.
