About

Democracy is in your hands. Totally free. Entirely playable offline. Republic is a single-player, turn-based democracy simulator for iPhone and iPad, with support for iPhone Duo. Run a fictional United States, reform 249 policies, balance the budget and face the voters. The whole game is free: no ads, subscriptions or in-app purchases. America is yours to reform. Unfortunately, the voters are still included. MAKE YOUR CASE Choose your president and party, customize starting conditions, and pick a difficulty. Keep the default cabinet or assemble your own. Set optional campaign promises, then decide how to deliver them. REFORM, COMPROMISE, REPEAT Explore 249 policy controls across seven departments. Privatize or nationalize, cut taxes or expand public services, strengthen diplomacy or fund the military. Political capital is limited, reforms take time, and even your supporters have opinions. FOLLOW THE MONEY Trace income, spending, debt and interest in interactive budget breakdowns. Open the policies behind the numbers. Popular promises still arrive with invoices. HEAR THE COUNTRY Read cabinet letters, respond to political dilemmas and follow fictional public posts. Track national trends, understand voter groups and see how your decisions shape your political compass. FACE THE VOTE Watch election night unfold across the US map. Build a coalition that lasts, recover from an unpopular choice or discover that doing nothing was also a choice. KEEP EXPERIMENTING Earn local milestones and political-path achievements. Keep multiple presidencies with autosaves and manual saves. Try Sandbox mode to waive political-capital costs while budgets, implementation and elections still apply. Play offline, choose light or dark appearance, and adjust sound, haptics and motion preferences. PLAY ANYWHERE, EVEN OFFLINE Run your country on the train, on a flight or wherever your next idea strikes. No internet connection, account or advertising gets between you and your presidency. A BIGGER VIEW OF YOUR COUNTRY Play on iPhone, settle in with iPad or open iPhone Duo for more room to weigh your next decision. Keep your choices and presidency with you as you turn the screen or open Duo. Gameplay analytics is optional and off by default. Republic is a fictional simulation, not a forecast or an endorsement of any political view.

What's New in Republic

1.1.0

November 8, 2026

What's new in 1.1, since 1.0: • Sandbox mode: experiment without political-capital costs while budgets, implementation, institutions and elections still matter. • Population simulation and reports: follow age groups, citizenship, workforce, income, migration and service capacity, with history charts and demographic planning estimates. • Clearer campaigns and three opposition replies, with fewer interruptions until elections approach. Fixed final-term campaign saving. Continue a lost second-term election with achievements off. Election pledges remain optional. • More ways to build executive power: costly war/crisis actions, limited emergency election delays and risky takeovers. Single-party leadership has no term ceiling but still faces real leadership reviews. • Shared private-service permissions: decide where client-funded providers are allowed, with unequal access and inequality tradeoffs. • Explore 249 policies with audited categories, distinct group icons, better search and Related policies. Clearer capital quotes, delivery progress, forecasts and agenda navigation. • More consistent budget income, spending and forecasts, with improved breakdown charts, debt/approval history and policy-impact explanations. • Reworked Office and Country dashboards, clearer public-opinion reports, easier report links, quieter Inbox correspondence and a shorter, replayable quick start. • Illustrated election and presidency results, shareable image posters and direct native sharing. • An illustrated Oval Office menu with gentle motion, clearer overlays and aligned launch/menu branding. Refined iPhone, iPad and Duo layouts, including large text, rotation and Light/Dark appearance. • Discord and Rate Republic links, plus one optional analytics choice covering detailed sessions, results and available saved-game history. Off by default. • Save-continuity, achievement and stability fixes. Political-path awards recognize qualifying election resolutions; Totalitarian state accepts either a left or right economy. Sandbox and continued-after-defeat games cannot earn awards. Your existing presidencies and earned local achievements remain on your device. Republic remains free and playable offline, with no ads, subscriptions or in-app purchases.

Good simulator, some improvements needed

The game is very in depth and has a stupidly high number of policies you can edit. That being said, you can barely change policy as it costs so many agenda points. The game would be fantastic if the cost of that is lower. I can only make around 1 policy change per quarter. Once that gets changed, it’ll be one of the most in-depth election games on the market. That being said, it does feel and operate like a Claude coded game, but it does seem to be well put together and thought out.
