Meet the Senate →<br>Questions, Mr. President?<br>What is POTUS?POTUS is a free browser game where you play the sitting President of the United States during the real current week. The actual news on the President's desk becomes your Situation Brief — you decide what to do, and from that moment your America splits off from the real one.<br>Is it free?Yes. POTUS is free to play in your browser during the open alpha, with no signup required.<br>Is the news real?Each week's Situation Brief is built from that week's actual news. A fact is only stated as fact when it is confirmed across outlets on both sides of the spectrum (Fox, CNN, and a wire service); one-sided claims are labeled as contested. Once you make a decision, everything that follows is fiction.<br>Is the Senate real?The roster is the real 100 sitting U.S. senators with their real voting-record (NOMINATE) scores from voteview.com. Their votes in the game are satirical predictions computed from that data — never statements, quotes, or positions of the real officials.<br>Is POTUS affiliated with the White House or any politician?No. POTUS is fictional satire made by Veronata, Inc. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to any real person, political party, campaign, or government body.<br>What happens after I make a decision?The Senate holds a floor vote on your call, the press reacts across the spectrum, your approval moves, and your Vice President remembers everything. Your alternate timeline runs for 8 weeks, then history grades your presidency with a report card.
