Political game

A political game is a game in which players roleplay and pretend to represent a government running a country.

Some games operate much like the traditional legislative government, relying on building consensuses to get things done. This includes:

• Nomic — a game played by changing its own rules
• The Politics Game — a game simulating a parliamentary democracy, in which any user active enough in discussion is allowed to form a party and discuss issues of the day in Parliament which effect the day to day running of the game/forum. Notable for being run entirely on the phpBB forum system rather than an actual game system.
