Want to know what gerrymandering is?

If you've ever wondered what exactly gerrymandering is, well now there's an app for that. What on the surface seems a complicated concept that might be hard to get your head around - rigging electoral boundaries so that you can win more seats despite not having a majority in the overall population, is made simple and clear with the delightful little puzzle game 'Gerrymander: Rig the Election'. Despite some issues with point systems and level progression (it's too easy to get stuck later on having to repeat levels over and over to earn enough points to unlock the next one), it's fun and addictive, tongue-in-cheek puzzler which serves to show just how easy our political systems can me manipulated. Definitely worth spending a few minutes of your time on, while standing in line to cast a vote.
