The judges said

"The winner of this category delivered an ambitious and polished product to a difficult brief, going way beyond the expectations of the clients, stakeholders and the broader audience."

Entrant’s description

The ‘MP for a Week’ game places the player firmly in the shoes of an MP, experiencing first-hand the personal and professional dilemmas of a week in politics, taking responsibility for their decisions, and then seeing the implications on their careers. The drama is presented in an ever-changing environment, offering a diverse blend of strategy and experimentation, together with a high level of personalisation. A positive overall rating is the ultimate purpose of the game, just like the real thing. The game presents a uniquely credible and intriguing view of the political process.

Judging Criteria
