❤ Gameplay Overview

The game tasks players with three main objectives: paying off the national debt, defeating ISIS, and avoiding World War III. Players accomplish these goals through a mix of economic management, military actions, and diplomatic relations with other countries.

❤ Economic Management

At the core of the gameplay, players buy and sell commodities like oil, food, and supplies on the global market, where prices constantly fluctuate. Careful monitoring of the markets and strategic timing of trades are crucial to maximizing profits and funding the fight against ISIS. Players can also unlock upgrades that provide boosts to their trading abilities.

❤ Defeating ISIS

In addition to the economic simulation, the game features 2D side-scrolling combat sequences where players control President Trump as he battles waves of ISIS fighters. These mini-games test the player's reflexes and aim, as they must quickly eliminate enemies before they can attack. Succeeding in these battles earns players resources and unlocks new gear and upgrades.

❤ Geopolitical Maneuvering

To support their economic and military objectives, players navigate a complex web of international relations. They can send aid to allied countries, threaten or invade hostile nations, and use diplomacy to manipulate trade prices. Each action impacts the overall "World Tension" level, which, if raised too high, can trigger World War III and end the game. Carefully balancing these geopolitical moves is crucial to long-term success.

❤ Player Feedback

Players praise the game's tongue-in-cheek humor and ability to satirize the Trump presidency in an over-the-top manner. The economic simulation, in particular, stands out, with players enjoying the challenge of timing trades and exploiting market fluctuations. The combat against ISIS also provides a fun, if repetitive, distraction from the core economic management.
