This was one of the first games I voted for when Greenlight began, which was around 2012, long before Trump's 2015 declaration that he would seek the presidency of the United States. The sole premise of the game was to act as a bodyguard to a generic president. The concept of a game where the player wins by getting shot had a certain appeal to me. But sadly, the game just rotted in Greenlight for years, and I came to terms with the fact that it would never come out.

I don't care what your politics are, but I'm glad that Trump's candidacy, at the very least, gave the developers of this game a catalyst to retool their project into something more marketable. If you like Trump, you can save his life over and over. If you don't like Trump, you get to see him killed in a variety of ways. Everyone goes home happy. Trump jokes do saturate the game, which probably won't age well and not everyone will find them particularly funny. The real humor comes from all of the things that go wrong as you play.

This is a novelty game, it's easy to compare it to Goat Simulator. The physics are dubious at their best, and Lovecraftian at their worst. The presentation is rather bare-bones, the stages are short and lacking in much detail, the game itself isn't terribly long. The entertainment comes mostly from the surreal nature of the game, and the bizarre things that might happen for inexplicable reasons. Beating a level is ancillary to experiencing the strangeness.

I have a feeling that the devs of this game might not put in the same amount of care and effort as did the the devs of Goat Simulator, as far as updates, additions, or DLC. If you are reading this, devs, feel free to prove me wrong. I was one of your first votes, you owe me :P Perhaps one day a robust modding community will form around this game, and you will be able to take a bullet for any president you like. It's possible that in the future this game will even allow us to prevent the assassination of America's greatest president, William McKinley.

Beyond the surreality, the glitches, and the Trump-specific satire, the game is honestly fun to play. The basic premise is novel, and it might make you laugh. It's essentially a puzzle game, the president finds himself in a variety of precarious situations which require the player to employ different strategies in order to save his life. The game is cheap as it is, but I wouldn't blame someone for waiting for a substantial sale before purchasing.

There's also a dedicated front-flip button.
