5.0 out of 5 stars Non-Stop Action
Politics is a board game "revolution." It combines action, strategy, emotional highs and lows, and just outright fun. It is easy enough for kids to learn and at the same time sophisticated enough for seasoned saints to thoroughly enjoy.

My wife and I enjoy this game to the utmost. We recommend it to all!

3.0 out of 5 stars Great fun, but not the top choice in election type board games
my nine year old loves this game...when he wins an office we have him go to the family bible and repeat the appropriate oath to be sworn in for that title... while it does allow the player to appreciate that both money and fame, along with some good old luck combine for a successful bid for office the extent of educational value is diminished with glib trivia, rather...

This review is from: Politics, the American Government in Action (Toy)
This is a fun game for the whole family. No need to understand politics to be able to win. Somehow my 11 year old wins this game more often than I do. Easy to play and fun for everyone. Really enjoyed it.

This review is from: Politics, the American Government in Action (Toy)
My Sister from Washington told me about this game. We ordered one and our kids and grandchildren set down and played "Politics" the other eveing. We played two or three games laughing and having a grand time. Its great to have the family around the table again instead of setting in front of the television. I give this game a 5 star rating for giving us our family time back. I know what I'll be sending my relatives for Christmas.

This review is from: Politics, the American Government in Action (Toy)
When I saw this game I had to get it. It's like a mix of "Life" and "Monopoly" with a political twist. Never was anything having to do with politics this much fun. My teenage girls LOVE this game. My friends love this game. Even my mother-in-law loves this game. Who could ask for more than that? This is an extremely quality game, too. Durable and beautifully made. Politics is a hit and will be a family favorite for many years to come. Thanks Chum Chum for an awesome game! Keep 'em coming!!

I had so much fun chasing around the board and being involved in the different political offices, raising my votes and money. Being challenged and running for an office is next to really being elected.

Move over, "Politics" is here...this is a awesome game for all ages. While educating the young ones about our political history, it also gives people of my age group, which is 25-45, a challenging, entertaining experience like no other boardgame I have ever seen. While collecting popularity points and gaining wealth, you have the choices of entering many branches of government, such as The President, Secretary of State, US Senate, and from Mayor to Governor. WOW WOW WOW What a game!!

This is one to play around the table with all your family members this holiday season, young and old. It surely is a favorite in my household and I know it will be your favorite game too.

Good Luck in your political campaign to reach the ultimate seat of "The President".

THANK YOU CHUM CHUM GAME COMPANY FOR THIS GREAT GAME!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Board Games are "FUN" again, December 7, 2004
= Durability:5.0 out of 5 stars  = Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars  = Educational:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Politics, the American Government in Action (Toy)
When I first played this game with my family, I was of course not willing to play. The game looked like it would be hard to learn and I did not have time for this. Well, before the first hour was up I had become the President and noticed that this was not hard to learn at all. I had played Monopoly as a kid and thought that no one could top that game, but boy was I wrong. The next time I played, the strategies of the game became more apparent. I found out that I could stop someone running for an office that would help them win as well as my favorite office was now "The Governor" (has score doublers in that one). This sure has gotten our family back to the table as all of my kids want to play. It is rare that a game comes along like this that the family can enjoy for hours. Nice idea Chum Chum!

5.0 out of 5 stars Impeached President!!!, December 3, 2004
= Durability:5.0 out of 5 stars  = Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars  = Educational:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Politics, the American Government in Action (Toy)
When I first saw the game I thought it looked complicated, BOY was I wrong!! What a fantastic concept for a game, not only is it educational it is so much fun! I played with my nephews and wouldn't you know it I was impeached. We have a family night where we get together at my mom's house and just the adults play, but with this game age really doesn't matter. Awesome family game. I love that this game is challenging, yet at the same time we have 3 generations that can sit down, play, and have a GREAT time. I Love being President! An American Game Made Totally In AMERICA. Great job ChumChum Games!!!!

When they say this is the hottest new game they aren't kidding. I bought this game and took it to a Thanksgiving gathering. I have never had so much fun or laughed so hard while playing any board game with the exception of this one. I am going to give a bunch of these as gifts this year.

There have been very few games that I actually enjoy sitting down and playing with the kids. Politics is one of them! I highly recommend this game to anyone that is looking for a game to sit down and play family or friends for a good, old fashioned 'game night.'
