Build your legacy and shape the nation.MANDATE A Nigerian Political Life Simulator Create a playable, visually impressive, feature-rich political life simulation game called MANDATE. Build it as a mobile-friendly, portrait-first browser game with a premium interface, engaging gameplay, meaningful decisions, multiple career paths, political competition, financial management, and a living fictional Nigerian world. Do not create a simple clicker game, a static dashboard, a presentation, or a collection of disconnected screens. Build an actual interactive simulation where the player's decisions affect their career, money, relationships, reputation, political rivals, businesses, elections, and future opportunities. Prioritize a complete, playable core experience over an enormous collection of unfinished features. 1. VISUAL IDENTITY Create a premium Nigerian political simulation with a distinctive visual identity. Use a sophisticated combination of: - Cinematic 2.5D or lightweight 3D environments. - Realistic, stylized Nigerian characters. - Beautiful editorial-style news and information screens. - Elegant ivory, forest green, muted gold, deep navy, and terracotta accents. - Nigerian-inspired architecture, urban streets, markets, government buildings, and campaign locations. - Professional typography, rich visual hierarchy, rounded interface panels, subtle shadows, and smooth transitions. - Tasteful animations for elections, meetings, contracts, appointments, and major career events. The game must not look like a generic banking app or a basic spreadsheet. Give different sections their own visual personalities. The campaign screen should not look identical to the finance screen. The election screen should feel dramatic. News should look like a premium Nigerian newspaper. Government offices should feel authoritative. Design for a 9:16 mobile screen, with responsive layouts for wider screens. Use original fictional political parties, politicians, characters, and news organizations.

Ward or Local Political Leader. 4. Local Government Chairman. 5. House of Representatives Member. 6. Senator. 7. Governor. 8. President. Make advancement dependent on eligibility, political opportunities, party relationships, election outcomes, reputation, and other relevant conditions. Do not unlock every position immediately.

Rivals should have their own objectives. They may recruit supporters, negotiate alliances, challenge nominations, criticize the player, or compete for political positions. Some rivals may become allies. Some allies may become rivals. Relationships must change in response to actual decisions and events. Do not make rivals omniscient, endlessly wealthy, or unbeatable.

Everything is original: never draw or resemble characters, places or logos from existing games, films or brands (no red-capped plumbers, no famous mascots), even when the idea names one. Keep the pictures honest: they promise what a small first version of this game, made in a game engine in a few days, can look like. Simple readable shapes, clear silhouettes, few flat materials, the in-game camera view. Never film stills, photoreal renders, AAA key art, detailed textures, cinematic lighting, or anything that looks like a big-studio game. No text, UI, HUD, logos or editor screens inside any image.
