### 2/5 — Lawcraft? More like Lawcrap

*2025-07-12*

This game doesn’t let you pick your state, party, or even name your character or be a senator. It forces you to be a representative of a random type of district and it’s really short.

### 1/5 — Not what you see in the pictures

*2023-10-31*

Don’t waste your time downloading, it is not as advertised

### 1/5 — Why did you change it

*2022-09-21*

This game slapped back in the day, I just downloaded it again and you can’t even create a character anymore

### 5/5 — Soo goooooood

*2021-04-10*

Yayayyayayaya

### 5/5 — Great but one problem

*2021-03-28*

This game is really good but the game does not let you pick your person, political party, or house of congress. Please fix this

### 1/5 — Do not get this whatsoever

*2021-03-17*

It is horrible, if I could give it a zero I would. Everything you see above is not there. It is a totally different and boring thing

### 3/5 — Good but a problem on my end.

*2021-02-02*

It is a great game but once I get finished with my bill it takes me right back to the Home Screen. It doesn’t let me choose my character or any of that stuff. I tried to download it again and try it again and nothing different happened. It gets boring after a while because I do my bill and then I can’t do anything else. I don’t know if i missed anything while playing but other than that issue it’s a great game!

### 5/5 — Great Great Great

*2020-10-03*

Nothing To Comment It Is Just To GOOD!

### 1/5 — Short

*2019-12-03*

If anything is wrong here it’s the length of the game it’s super short which makes it boring

### 5/5 — Very good for education

*2018-02-21*

It will make kids have good education about law
