India, 2029. Artificial intelligence is accelerating, formal work cannot absorb the workforce, household insecurity is spreading, and uneven state capacity is testing the federal bargain. Doom Loop: India is a political-economic strategy game about governing the republic through the automation shock of 2028–2038. Every six months, choose the major actions that will define the decade. Guarantee livelihoods in cities and districts. Build a national skills and apprenticeship mission. Turn the digital public stack into a citizen dividend. Shift GST toward post-labour revenue. Build green manufacturing. Give states a binding role in national delivery. Every choice has a cost—and scale changes every choice. Follow the Indian Doom Loop as automation changes employment, household security, the tax base, public debt, political legitimacy, and federal cohesion. The northern heartland, southern states, industrial west, eastern mineral belt, Northeast, and fast-growing corridors respond differently to the same national policy. FEATURES • Govern through twenty six-month turns • Choose from major livelihood, skills, tax, trade, digital, and federal policies • Manage political capital and Lok Sabha election setbacks • Track effective unemployment, security, debt, legitimacy, and cohesion • Watch six distinct state and regional pressure paths evolve • Face dynamic reactions from capital, China, the United States, and the Global South • Reach one of four national outcomes in 2038 • Play entirely offline with no account or advertising Can you convert automation into mass capability before economic exclusion overwhelms federal consent? Doom Loop: India is a fictional strategy simulation. It is not a prediction, political endorsement, or source of professional advice.

About

President Simulator

You and a rival start in the same city, in the same year, at the bottom of the same ladder. Eight rungs: ward organizer, city council, mayor, state senator, senator, governor, party nominee, president. Two or three cards a year. Every card tells you why it happened, and what your choice just did to the other candidate. THE RIVAL Your rival is a named person with a temperament, and their career runs on the same engine as yours. Refuse a donor's money and they take it. Vote against the party and they collect the favour. Their ladder sits beside yours on every screen, and the run ends the year one of you reaches the top. EVERY OUTCOME NAMES ITS CAUSE Choices open named threads — Grassroots, Owed, Scandal, Burnout, Party Machine — and a thread you fed at 31 is what fires an event at 44. Tap any thread to see the exact years that fed it and every documented way out of it. ELECTION NIGHT SHOWS ITS ARITHMETIC No hidden dice. An election card lists your standing, what each open thread adds or costs, the total, the odds, and the number you rolled. When you lose, you can see precisely why. WHAT IS NOT IN HERE No timers. No energy meters. No coins. No adverts of any kind, and no advert kit in the build. Your first run is free from the first card to the last, and running again is one purchase, once — never a subscription. Rewind takes a year back on both ladders when a choice goes wrong. It is optional, and it says its price. Every person, city, party and office in the game is invented.
