Beskrivning
Woodward and Bernstein, Washington Post reporters revealed the biggest political scandal in recent history in 1972-73. The affair that brought down a US president, known as Watergate , is the setting for the new 2-player game by author Matthias Cramer .
In Watergate , one of the players plays the editors of the Washington Post. The editors try to prove the connection between Nixon and various key figures. The other player is the Nixon administration, which tries to hide evidence and stay in office until the regular end of office. Could you enforce Nixon's resignation or just laugh at the attempts of a ridiculous newspaper trying to overthrow you?
With very catchy rules and completely different card decks for each of the two opponents in the game, Watergate is able to bring history to life with every thrilling game. In addition to the brief instructions there is again a long part of the story that explains the whole affair in detail and shows all the people involved in it.
Watergate is a playful treat with tactical and strategic elements by successful author Matthias Cramer and authentically illustrated by Klemens Franz with real photographs from the time. 2 players can reenact a historic scandal or rewrite the story in 45 minutes.
