Do you have what it takes to survive the cutthroat competition of the campaign trail and become the next US President? It’s time to rub elbows, oversell your scant promises, and engineer a few scandals―because nobody gets into the White House without getting a little dirty.

Release and update

2016-11-01

We have now officially launched on Steam! Plus news on the Nov. 1 update. Take the election into your own hands in Megalo Polis -- a side-splitting, real-time strategy game launching today on Steam for PC and Mac. Political junkies and undecided voters alike are in for a treat in this no-holds barred, hilarious dash for the most powerful office in the land. In Megalo Polis, your job is to play as one of the game’s presidential candidates -- whether they can legally run or not -- and jump head first into the campaign trail to “convince” the populace to elect you president. Choose between Hillary Clinton, Donald Trump, Barack Obama, Bernie Sanders or Ted Cruz. Declare yourself a Republican or Democrat -- and compete against three opposing candidates.

Enjoy the Nov. 1 update, which adds Ted and Bernie as playable characters -- along with a number of improvements to gameplay and difficulty balance.

A game that was pushed out for the elections? Probably. If these elections weren't so crazy would a game like this succeed? Probably not. It's a cute concept and I could see it as a humorous time killer on mobile but I'm not too sure anyone would put in more than 2 hours in this game.

Megalo Polis is funny… At first. Then, the repetitive gameplay and the grating, squeaky voices of the ridiculous, bobble-headed candidates drags down the whole experience. If the “strategy” tag on this game appealed to you, you’ll be sorely disappointed. .Story. In the 2016 elections, anyone can run. Play as a giant form of presidential candidates Hilary Clinton, Barack Obama, Bernie Sanders, Ted Cruz, or Donald...

Megalo Polis works... and that's the only good thing about it. There's absolutely no strategy involved, and the comedy expected from something dealing with the US elections, is restricted to a two-second smile-worthy art-style - you'll have more fun watching the actual elections.
