Have you ever wondered who would win in a fistfight between the President of the United States Barack Obama and presidential candidate Mitt Romney? Well Chair Entertainment has created the perfect computerized simulation in the form of Vote: The Game.
The new cartoon-style, political slugfest, is a free download from the App Store. And was created in collaboration with Rock the Vote. The game actually features an in-game voter registration and resources to engage gamers in the political process just before the November Presidential Election.
Vote, allows iOS users to play as Barack Obama or Mitt Romney and take part in a political barn-burner where hits are called "debates" and blocks are "rebuttals."
The gameplay is very similar to Epic Games other iOS title Infinity Blade, except you get to do battle with politicians. The goal of this brawler is simply to get the most points and therefor defeat your opponent. Each hit will scores some points and if you daze your opponent you can earn some reward coins.
So whether you are a liberal, conservative, independent or just plain confused, you can knock around your least favorite potential president. If you dodge and time your attack perfectly you can really score some points and setup mini-combos.
At the end of every fight, gamers are graded with by the accumulation of votes that feed into a larger pool of data. There is also a meter in the game that keeps tally on which presidential candidate is currently in the lead of the poll of gamer's opinion.
The game is pure addictive fun, but the controls do not always work and some of your swipes do not equal strikes. The game runs pretty slow so even if you miss a strike you should be able to make it up with some quick screen mashing. It is a goofy game that does not take itself to serious. So I rate a 7/10. Plus it is free!
