Frequently asked questions

Everything players ask before taking office.

What is BlindSpot?

BlindSpot is a real-life politics simulator you play in your browser. You lead a real country turn by turn; an AI writes each situation and simulates how the economy, the people and other countries react to your decisions.

Is BlindSpot free?

Your first game is free — a full game, with no turn limit. After that, each new game needs a Sovereign Pass: €2.99 for one, €9.99 for five or €16.99 for ten. Resuming a game you already started is always free.

Do I need to download anything?

No. BlindSpot runs in any modern browser on phone, tablet or computer. Sign in with your email (we send a 6-digit code — no password) or with Google.

Which languages can I play in?

English, Arabic, French, Spanish and Portuguese. The whole game — newspapers, advisors and verdicts — is written in the language you choose.

Which countries can I lead?

Any real country. The game is especially detailed for 34 countries, from the United States, Brazil and France to Egypt, Nigeria and Indonesia, where it knows the real institutions, currency, economy and neighbours.

How realistic is it?

The countries, institutions and economic pressures are real, and the AI reasons about plausible reactions. It is still a game, not a forecast: it compresses months into turns and dramatises consequences so every decision matters.

How long does a game last?

Usually 20–40 minutes and 10–25 turns. There is no turn limit — a game ends when your state collapses, when you resign, or when the AI decides you have reached a point of no return.

What is THE SYSTEM?

THE SYSTEM is the engine behind the game. It studies how you rule and builds crises that test your blind spot — the weakness in your style of governing that you cannot see yourself.

Do real politicians appear in the game?

You play as the new leader of the country under your own name. Real institutions and foreign powers appear as they would in the news; the story of your government is fiction.

Can I share my result?

Yes. When your rule ends you get a verdict card and a public page you can share. Your games stay private unless you choose to share them.
