The Mandate: Political Sim

You are the newly elected President of Valcera, a fragile republic balanced between five powerful factions, a restless public, and a world that is watching. The Mandate is a text driven political simulation about the weight of decisions, not the noise of politics.

Every session is a week in office. You read the morning brief, consult your advisors, and face a handful of dilemmas where every option has a cost. Raise taxes, crush a strike, negotiate a trade pact, veto a bill, respond to a foreign crisis. There is no correct answer, only the leader you choose to be.
