What Makes Running For President – 2016 US Election Satire Stand Out
Running For President is an action-packed arcade style game using simple, button controls. Begin your quest for the whitehouse in the caucus hall. Next, you need money – FAST! Run through America, collecting cash and briefcases full of special interest money. Avoid the supreme court. Do you have what it takes to be the next president?
Running For President is a satirical view of American politics and the insanity of the presidential election cycle. All candidates are lampooned. Nothing is sacred.
Game is intended for amusement purposes only. All characters are fictional. Any resemblance to actual people is purely coincidental. Have fun!
Voting is a right and privilege. Make democracy work by remembering to vote.

Community Insight:
Ted Cruzs model is hot we need to date him now.
This isnt a very good game we would vote for Ben Shapiro if he runs.
This game is a total waste of time it is sooooooo boring. If we could review this we would give it 1 star.
This game is fine, we would love to see more from this studio, Ive never heard of them before, but we anticipate their next project being a real banger.
Everyone moves too slow and theres not enough money in the levels. Even if you get all the money you can and avoid everyone you still die.
Voting for Hillary in general originally Bernie supporter game is awesome controls could be a little better though.
This is laugh out loud funny – the characters are spot on. Our candidate really raked in the money.
This app nailed the orange color of Donald Trump perfectly. Still waiting for the Donald to implode.
Love this game, voting for Bernie bc we don't feel like being responsible for opening the doors to hell.
Bc he knows what it's like to have very little.
Sometimes this games does get annoying but other than that it's a great game.#votetrump.
This game is terrible the controls are terrible, there no way to tell you have died. The decent about this game it's sense of humor after other than that this game is garbage.
It is so bad it has bad controls you can't turn streets and the music is dumb. We want to be hillary we have to pay for her and be some one fake.
But we're voting for Hillary Clinton and she's not races and she dose not lie.
