show morePowerhouse Animation and Hothead Games are pleased to announce the creation of an online strategy game that might help the American electorate vent some steam in the final days of the 2008 presidential election.
In the game, players can use characters such as Vice-Presidential hopeful Sarah Palin, who sits astride a moose, armed with a tranquilizer gun. Joe Biden is also represented in the game, sitting atop an Amtrack train, “gaffing” his way to victory. The game includes most of the political season’s key players, from George Bush to Bill Clinton.
The game is a “tower defense” strategy game. Tower Defenses, or TDs, are a genre of computer strategy games in which you try to stop enemies from getting from one point on a map to another. To stop the enemies, the user builds towers which attack the enemies as they pass.
In this game, the map is Washington DC, and the path leads to the White House. The player is trying to prevent Democrats or Republicans from reaching the White House and gaining 270 electoral votes
