Making the NBA 2K of Politics – Eliot Nelson (Political Arena)
Show Notes

In this conversation, we speak with Eliot Nelson, a political journalist — formerly with HuffPost who has launched a new project on Kickstarter called Political Arena. It's a comprehensive video game about politics.

We talk about the challenges of turning political campaigns into a video game, his decision to pursue crowdfunding, and what he hopes players take away from Political Arena.

You can back the project on Kickstarter here.
