Downing Draft

Can you survive the pressure of Number 10?

Downing Draft is a political strategy game where you step into the role of Prime Minister, build your Cabinet, set your priorities and see how long your government can survive.

You start in a difficult national moment. The economy is under pressure, public patience is limited, and every decision affects your chances of staying in office.

Choose your governing style. Pick your priorities. Decide your economic approach. Then draft a Cabinet from real UK political figures and try to build a government strong enough to last.

Can you make it through a full term? Win another mandate? Or will your premiership collapse before it ever gets going?

HOW IT WORKS

SET YOUR AGENDA. Choose the areas your government will prioritise, from health and housing to defence, education, crime, welfare and the economy.

CHOOSE YOUR STYLE. Govern as a steady pragmatist, a popular communicator or a more ambitious transformational leader.

DRAFT YOUR CABINET. Build your team by assigning ministers to key roles. A strong Cabinet can improve delivery, but politics is about more than putting people in the right jobs.

BALANCE THE PRESSURE. Public trust, Cabinet cohesion, political capital and policy delivery all shape your survival.

SIMULATE YOUR PREMIERSHIP. Lock in your choices and see how long you last in office.

SHARE YOUR RESULT. Get your political legacy title, survival time, approval rating and final outcome, then challenge friends to beat your premiership.
