The People's House

Hosted Games has a new game for you to play!

You’ve risen to the highest office in the land—the Presidency. The campaign was grueling, but the next four years promise to be even more daunting.

The People’s House is 40% off until March 13th!

The People’s House is an interactive novel by R. F. Kramer where your choices control the story. It’s entirely text-based—over 400,000 words, without graphics or sound effects—and fueled by the vast, unstoppable power of your imagination.

When you take the oath of office, your life will change forever. As the Leader of the Free World, every decision you make will shape the nation—and define your legacy. With the stroke of a pen, you can alter the course of history, but power is never absolute.

Your Vice President, Cabinet, and advisors claim to have your back—but ambition is a dangerous thing. The press is hungry for a scandal, and your political enemies are eager for a shot at the White House. Can you protect your own family from the pressures of power, or will they become collateral damage in your rise to greatness?

You entered office with a strong sense of morals and a determination to cement your vision into history. Now, it’s up to you to decide if you’ll hold on to them, even if it costs you everything.

  • Play as male, female, or nonbinary; gay, straight, or bi.
  • Shape your presidency with choices that influence your political career and the fate of the nation.
  • Keep your family happy as they’re quickly thrust into the national spotlight.
  • Exercise your powers as Commander-in-Chief, for better or worse.
  • Manage your staff and cabinet appointments to ensure an effective administration.
  • Work to join the exclusive list of two-term Presidents, fail to sway the electorate, or resign in scandal.

You won the election. Can you handle the job?

    Apparently not. I wonder why myself, since it’s the longest game in recent memory to not get a Steam release. I guess a game explicitely about US politics may have been deemed too… controversial for this time of year.

  4. I will try it soon!!! I hope this wont hurt my expectation
