Governance is a groundbreaking new political and social simulator that aims to fuse a real-time approach not seen in political sim with real world data, providing the most realistic simulation of modern politics. Focusing on UK politics, you can play as a Member of Parliament, the leader of a political party or the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. Featuring over 1000 dynamic events, 50 unique policies, a dynamic economic system and tightly-knit integration of real-world data, Governance marries realism with fun political wargaming.
The key to Governance is making friends in the hope that they further the policy goals that you have. You have to get on to get far… or build up enough dirt on the way to bully your way into the halls of power! Network with peers, join think tanks, go to lunch with lobbyists, and ultimately gain enough momentum to make the change you want to see in the world.
Rather than the traditional left-right axis, Governance employs our multivariate Entity Beliefs System. Combining internal ranking on up to 12 different co-existent axes, linguistic analysis and historical background, Entity Beliefs are truer in nature to the complex nature of ideological and non-ideological beliefs. Original belief systems and schools of thought surrounding a policy platform can develop and evolve as your game continues.
Machivelli said "whoever wishes foresee the future must consult the past" - if only he was around today to remind our politicians of this simple truth...
The actions you take today will completely change events in 10 years. A scandal you think you have buried could come back if you aren't wise to where it's coming from. The 'natural party of government' can collapse under its own weight.
You can use the in-game Wiki system and Address Book to find the movers and shakers, what information is both widely known about them... and what information you have learned that others haven't!
Unhappy with modern British politics? Start your own party and see how it copes with our electoral system. Unhappy with the choices made by the party elites? Throw those policies away and move in your own direction! (If the party bigwigs will let you...)
Governance also includes deep tooling to help you mod the game further, allowing you to create new events, belief systems and parties for your own custom scenarios with ease*.
This is a work of fiction and (in the case of the Game Edition) political satire. Names, political parties, characters, places and incidents either are products of procedural gameplay or are used fictitiously. Any resemblance to actual events or locales or persons, living or dead, is entirely coincidental.
