TechPresident notes a new online game called "For The People: Fantasy Politics" is set to go live soon. The game, from Rocket Surgeon Entertainment, will be on Facebook. Here's how it works:
Players adopt avatars and live out professional lives as members of the House. They take meetings with lobbyists, debate proposed amendments with colleagues in committee, negotiate positions before moving proposed bills, and they can also crowdsource legislation. Eventually, they'll also be able to campaign for re-election or run for the Senate or the presidency.
Here's a video from the company with a little more detail.
