Overview

Campaign Trail allows players the opportunity to campaign through the length and breadth of the USA, returning, as necessary, to those areas which may need an additional pep talk (and further funding). Unlike other American election games, Campaign Trail has a cheery luck factor which does seem an accurate reflection of the largest circus in the world. The chances of moving from state to state and finding your schedule in good shape are as likely as a succinct observation from Neil Kinnock.
