Leave a Review 270 | Two Seventy US Election
Beyond Brilliant
This game is riveting, fun and highly addictive! It’s a great pass time and makes for really enjoyable historical and theoretical elections. I would like to see some more candidates added, which I’m sure will be done (ie all Presidents since FDR and major candidates too would be great).
A big update that is needed though is to make computer opponents more challenging to verse and not have them equating money on national groups which gets them no where and you end up with more than 270 in a couple of turns. Big contrast to when you verse real players too.Show lessPresidenttodd

This is a really great game which I’ve enjoyed playing. It’s probably the best of its kind and I think the expansion of characters is really fantastic.
As strange as it sounds, I wish it was a bit easier to lose. I often feel I’m able to win the game because the mechanics are predictable. It would be interesting to have additional features which force you to take risks making the outcome a little less predictable.
I think the cost for additional characters is a bit expensive at £3.99 each. I’ve subscribed this month to have all characters, I’m unsure if I’ll do it again however. There’s so much scope to continue to add a characters.
On the character point, as a British citizen it’s nice to see some former UK PM’s in the app - Thatcher and Blair. However, Blair shouldn’t be classed as an independent he would certainly be a Democrat if he were American. A future update of the game should include more British politicians such as Jeremy Corbyn although ultimately I wonder what the prospect of creating a UK map would be?
Ultimately, 4 out of 5 stars. A really fun game, but sometimes too easy to win and the in-app costs are expensive.Show lessDecMcL

Yeah it is Extraordinary Epic. My problem is that if I cannot play with others and go to single player then even with four Candidates running against me I still manage to win, so it would be great if we could turn up or down the Difficulty for single player.
And it would be a Awesome to learn about how other countries elect there leaders. By adding in other countries it would give players more options so could play for longer and to unlock other countries you could get the user to pay.Show lessMatty177
Spending money& policy’s
On the next update y’all should allow us to spend the campaign funds if we have the money to do so I’ve had over $500k and once I spend $250 I can’t go anymore I play it smart get the money where I need to with the National groups and with the State groups and once I pass m opponent I can’t spend all the money I have but when I play against the computer they are allowed to spend all there money and in turn they win the game always.
For the policy’s they should be a section just like State groups and national groups there’s should be some sort of policy section to where we can pick and choose our policy’s.Show lessDanny6161
Awesome game (with some ideas for later)
This is the best frigein political game out there. I love how you can more politicians in the store (even though it's 3.99, it's decently overpriced) but sometimes, the creators give the people a free politician. But I feel like the creators can do better. I have two fresh ideas.
1. Lower the price for politicians: the current price for ONE politician is 3.99. That is decently overpriced for one politician. The price for one politician should be 1.99 or have a pick 3 politician for 3.99
2. Create and share politicians: I feel like we should have the option of creating our own politician. Have a number of features, the political party ( Republican, Democratic or Independent), The nation where the politician is from and have a number of point to increase or decrease (decreasing will give you more points) benefits and penalties. Then you can play that politician by yourself or share on a database where you can download other people created politician. Now with that you can have the political race of dreams. Have Donald Trump take on Andrew Cuomo or if you are a entertainment and music fan, you can have a race between Post Malone vs Kanye West. Even sports fans can be part of this, Lebron James vs Steph Curry, Tom Brady vs Eli Manning or even Donald Trump vs Aaron Judge.
Other than that this is a great gameShow lessKingEdwardFabrizio
Amazing game
I am a huge political junkie, and I have been searching for a new political game. This one perfectly strikes the balance of being in depth and realistic enough to appeal to me and offer robust strategy and decision making while still being simple and enjoyable. Some of the gameplay can get a bit repetitive as you figure out what strategies work best, but overall it is pretty engaging. I do think that $4 is way too much to pay for expansion characters. I’d be willing to do 99c or $5 for a party bundle or something along those lines, but $4 per character when they all offer relatively similar in game benefits is a bit excessive in my view. It isn’t the must complex or detailed game out there, but I highly recommend it for a fun way to get your political fix in.Show lessMaclang23
Update took away characters...
Used to be able to play as Obama and Bloomberg - now these characters cost $6 a piece... disappointed that this update took away feature as opposed to adding them for players.politicsdragon

It’s a great game for those that enjoy politics. I have been searching for a game that lets you run for office without being too simplistic that it gets boring. Overall the game works great and has no real issues. I would like to see a future update that allows more national groups that don’t only support the republican candidates (gun lobby, evangelical, and big conservative are all very republican issues while the other 3 could be either party really) I wish buying new candidates was not as expensive as it is because 3.99 for a free game is a little expensive. Overall I highly recommend the game.Show lessLalalalame
Great
If we could customize maybe our own political parties, colours and symbols, and possibly leaders it would be a great addition to the game and I would gladly say that this game is one of the best election simulators out there that are free and enjoyable especially if you are waiting. Love the mechanics of the game.Show lessWe'll yeah

This has been so addicting and I agree with the other reviews. It would be great to play as previous election candidates. I loved playing an old PC game called Political Machine and this is the closest thing I found to it on iTunes. I think the focus on money is too simplistic. The PC game I played before sent candidates to give speeches, place ads (tv, newspaper, or radio), or fundraise money. I would love to see a campaign (story mode) where you would pick one candidate (Obama) and they would battle previous icons from the opposite party. This would unlock those characters for future play.
Overall, super addicting. I love it and I can’t wait to see what more updates will bring.Show lesststeuar0
