Great review! You honestly sold me on it and it seems awesome. Unfortunately I have no way to keep this on the table and I don't know the next time I'll have 10+ hours to play a solo game. I'll keep this one in mind for the future
That's a nice review and you support all of your points! Do you think that a European will enjoy the game as much as you do? I mean without the historical background
Thank you very much for the kind words! That is a great question I never thought about... I dont think the historical background would be as needed, but it can be tough to put yourself in the president seat without knowing a little bit about the cabinet members and the two party system that the USA has. If you look at it from a big picture, this game could still be for anyone, but I think you would get more enjoyment if you knew a little about how the system works. I HATE politics, but something about this game and managing crisis is what pulled me in and kept me playing multiple games. That is a great question though, and I will have to think about that a little bit more!
@@boardgamesfortwo I know the general stuff about US political system but in Europe generally and specifically in my country, Greece, the political system is way different than US. I would definitely be more interested in a theme closer to my experiences. Archon in ancient Greece city states, or something like Alexander the Great, who had more responsibilities. Even a king in medieval Europe would be a better theme for me. If I find this game for a good price I might get it and express my opinion after but I don't know if I will have the opportunity!
@@nikosmessis I 100 percent understand. Thanks for providing your worldly view on this topic of this game, it is not something I even thought about while reviewing and playing. I appreciate your perspective on obtaining the game. Happy gaming friend!
I skimmed through the review, so I apologize if you mentioned it, but could you tell me how well the storage is for all the components? Storage is an extremely important factor for me.
I did not mention it because I have not put it up yet. I am not going to lie… I ordered an organizer from Etsy and it is not in yet. I am afraid to say that I ordered this because there is no organizer for the chits and there are a ton. There is no organizer provided in the box. I can comment once I get the 3rd party organizer in. www.etsy.com/listing/1506733970/mr-president-the-american-presidency?click_key=103393af6481ae1feebd70963ceecb3a1059ca96%3A1506733970&click_sum=57f25262&ref=shop_home_active_6&crt=1
