Swing States Now on Sale at Victory Point Games

I know we previewed this just a few days back but Victory Point Games is quick to rock a title out; especially when timing is crucial, as with their newest game. Swing States 2012 puts you in the role of lead political strategist in charge of either Barack Obama’s reelection campaign or Mitt Romney’s bid to become the 45th President of the United States!

Swing States is currently available for $29.95.

From VPG:

“The word politics comes from the Greek ‘poly,’ meaning many, and the English ‘ticks,’ which are blood-sucking insects.” – James Carville

Swing States 2012 is a solitaire game simulating a U.S. presidential election in a given year. You are a political strategist hired by the nominee to win the Presidential Election for either the Democratic Party (symbolized by a donkey) or the Republican Party (symbolized by an elephant).

You must make strategic decisions regarding fund-raising and expenditures, where to campaign and where to advertise, when and where to send the nominees and vital surrogates, how much time they should spend fund-raising, preparing for debates, conducting opposition research, and dealing with scandals that appear out of nowhere.
