Political AGS games?

[heltenjon]

So, then. In these days, wouldn't it be a good idea to get your mind off the elections by playing some games? Surely they won't be political? 

I only know of two Trump satires made  in AGS: *** in Trump's Bed and Max Fury.

Do you know of other political AGS games? I seem to recall a zombie mayor plot from RON, at least. Is politics a good subject for adventure games?

I made a game called Strawman Bombing Disposal that has some political rantings in it from the terrorist bomber but it seems you have played it.

Rogue State is very cool - dictator sim.

I have a vague memory of a short game based on the UK houses of parliament... but I forget its name.

Well, several of my games deal some with the political climate of the Soviet union, one even features a political officer as the protagonist,
but if you're looking for satire of more contemporary leaders there's Space Rangers sob Ep.52 - the Redemption of Grisli Adams by Grok,
which has it's own spin on the "US president is secretly a lizard" trope. There's also Neofeud by SliverSpook.

Is politics a good subject for adventure games?

It is. I've yet to see any cyberpunk story worth it's name that hasn't touched heavily on subjects like authoritarianism, data privacy and oligopoly at least once,
and there are plenty of well-liked cyberpunk dystopias in the genre.

There was an excellent adventure point and click game with a political background: KGB, by Cryo Interactive. It is set in the lattest days of USSR. The Soviet ambiance is very well rendered and the plot is highly complex (brace yourself for one of the hardest games you ever played!). It is fascinating though and I played it a couple times because once you get into the plot you never want to get out until the end.
