Statemakers

Political strategy on PC

Statemakers is a turn-based political simulation for PC. You lead a party from polling near the electoral threshold into government, winning votes and then trying to hold a coalition together. You can play solo against AI-controlled parties or play multiplayer with friends via Steam.

Systems shape elections

Each state’s political rules affect how parties gain and lose power. You can set the number of chambers and seats, choose proportional, majoritarian, mixed or preferential elections, and adjust thresholds and districts. You can also configure how the head of state is chosen, what veto powers exist, how the constitutional court works and how governments are formed. These rules change which strategies work, and you can alter the settings to build a state of your own.
