The Political Machine 2024 is the latest political strategy game out from Stardock Entertainment for anyone who wants to see how the U.S. presidential election is going to turn out this year.

Americans are disturbed by politics and many would rather avoid it. But it is rather unavoidable and many of these same Americans intend to vote in the upcoming election. And that tells you about the mixed feeling people will have about playing game about politics.

I played The Political Machine 2020 and I enjoyed revisiting the remake of the game for this new political season. I played a couple of rounds of the presidential campaign strategy simulation game on Steam, first as Joe Biden and then as Donald Trump. I played on normal difficulty both times.

This game reminds me of my civic duty and the fun I had playing the old Parker Brothers board game Landslide from 1971. I first learned about presidential politics in that game, and you can do the same with your family with this title, either in a single-player game or in multiplayer. And this new game gives me an excuse to talk about one of my favorite side hobbies: politics.

Red vs. Blue in The Political Machine 2024.

This version of The Political Machine is a remake of the previous titles (The Political Machine of 2004, 2008, 2012, 2016 and 2016), and as usual it is ripped from the headlines, with this year’s Biden-Trump battle. It also has the presidential primaries race as well where you can see what it’s like to play as other candidates who actually ran against Biden and Trump. The primary part is new in this version, and it could fulfill the intellectual curiosity of those who want to replay the game; but we all know it’s a Biden-Trump thing this year.

There’s also a new multiplayer mode as well as presidential debates that can sway the voters in a particular state as well as across the whole country. In multiplayer, multiplayers can run against each other in the primaries.

Biden won in my first playthrough.

The last time around, I played as Elizabeth Warren squaring off against Donald Trump. I found it hard to get Warren to win, which is a pretty good semblance of reality. This time, it was easier for Biden to win and hard for Trump to win. But it was pretty close in both of the races that I played.

The game allows players to step into the shoes of presidential candidates, including Joe Biden, Donald Trump, Nikki Haley, Bill Clinton and countless other candidates fr …
