Known Windows problems:
We are continuing to find and fix any bugs.
- If the abbreviations on the main map are out of alignment with the map image, Windows is probably resizing aspects of the game automatically. If you right-click on your Desktop and select Display settings, it should have a ‘Change the size of’ setting. If it isn’t set to 100%, try setting it to 100% and run the game again.
- Norton products might have problems with the Prime Minister Infinity – Canada install file. If you use a Norton product and are having a problem, please contact us.

If that does not fix the error, make sure you have the latest updates relevant to Direct X (for Vista, the second Service Pack and the Platform Update, for Windows 7 the Service Pack 1).

Version Information
Hi, I just bought the Canadian version and when I tried to open the game a message popped up saying that the game needs to be updated to be playable on the latest macOS. It follows with this message “The developer of this app needs to update it to work with this version of macOS. Contact the developer for more information.” Is there a version that is planned that would work with the latest macOS?
Thank you,
@Nicolas,
No, Prime Minister Infinity does not have a planned release at this time that will be compatible with recent macOSes. Your options would be a dual install with Windows or with a pre-Catalina macOS on your Mac.
Hello! Someone here who played this a long time ago and wanted to get the game again. Is any old version available for purchase? And is there a ‘how to’ about how to use the campaigns that are available for download?
