Logo Design Brief

Election Empire is a darkly satirical, real-time political strategy game where players rise from local government roles to national leadership using cunning, manipulation, charisma, or brute force. The logo should reflect the game’s themes of power, corruption, political theater, and absurdism.

Objective
Design a logo that captures the essence of Election Empire’s gameplay:
Real-time political strategy
Hidden alignment system (Good/Evil, Law/Chaos)
Cartoonish but high-stakes tone
Satirical and dystopian themes

Target Audience
Strategy gamers aged 16+
Fans of political satire (think Veep, House of Cards, The Onion)
Players who enjoy games like Crusader Kings, Democracy 4, Slay the Spire, and RimWorld

Style Preferences
Bold, clean lines with high legibility
Iconographic/emblematic (should scale well for launcher, Steam, app icon, etc.)
Color Palette: Blues, Reds, Yellows, and muted Greens (to suggest democracy, corruption, wealth, decay)

Mood: Satirical, powerful, slightly unhinged

Visual Themes to Explore
A crooked crown sitting atop a ballot box or capitol dome
A podium with claw marks or bloodstains
Stylized chess pieces (e.g., king, rook, pawn)
Political symbols distorted (e.g., flag, laurel wreath, scales of justice)
A corrupted national seal or fractured eagle

Inspirations
1984-style dystopia
Cold War propaganda posters
Campaign branding gone wrong
Mobster iconography merged with civic symbols

Full logo (horizontal + stacked versions)
Icon/symbol version (for use in app stores or launchers)

Black & white, full-color, and monochrome versions
