Update: this biographical video game about George Washington released July 3, 2026 and is now available for purchase (there's also a free demo if you'd like to test it out first). For reference, I made a new post for the game's release here: https://www.reddit.com/r/georgewashington/comments/1ump8c7/i_just_released_the_first_biographical_video_game

Hi,

My name is Adam, and I'm a video game developer making the world's very first biographical video game about George Washington which shows locations related to George Washington and the American Revolution as they look today.  Important People of History: Presidents - George Washington is available to wishlist on Steam here right now: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3721820/Important_People_of_History_Presidents__George_Washington

This is one of three video games in the Important People of History series that will release on Steam in 2026 to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence (in addition to making this game about Washington, I'm also making games about Thomas Jefferson and Abraham Lincoln), and you can wishlist the games right now.

In the visual novel about George Washington, I show the real-life locations where Washington literally made history, in addition places important to his era, as all these places look today (I have visited these locations to take photos myself). You will see historic locations such as:

• Mount Vernon, where Washington lived
• Fort Necessity, from Washington's time in the French and Indian War
• Lexington and Concord, where the first shots of the American Revolution were fired
• Valley Forge
• Yorktown, Virginia, where the Revolutionary War was finally won
• Inside the Washington Monument
• And many more locations

The Washington game tends to cover the Revolutionary War, while the Jefferson game covers the events leading up to the war like the Boston Massacre, Boston Tea Party, etc. (and of course, the Declaration of Independence, which was written during the war)

In addition to Washington and Jefferson, the games also teach about other prominent figures of the Revolutionary War era, such as:

• Alexander Hamilton
• The Marquis de Lafayette
• Patrick Henry
• Paul Revere
• Betsy Ross

Please check out the entire Important People of History series on Steam, wishlist the games, and let your fellow fans of the American Revolution know about these games! (There's also a third game about Abraham Lincoln for any Civil War buffs out there, but that game is not particularly relevant to this sub, so I didn't talk about it much above)
