Beschreibung
Presidents versus Trump is an action-packed, fun-filled, 30-minute card game for 1-4 players. The American presidents, from George Washington to Barack Obama, are so offended by Trump sitting in their chair that they’ve all come back together to kick him out. But while the portal to the past was open, a rogue’s gallery of villains from American history, from Benedict Arnold to Bull Connor, have come back to defend Trump. The battle for the honor of the American presidency is on!

The game is shamelessly Ameritrashy, with keywords, variable powers, stuff from real history, light deckbuilding and lots of dice. It's suitable for casual play - with a partner, with coworkers and friends, as an offbeat filler option on game day, or during the commercials when streaming presidential election debates.

The designer ran a successful Kickstarter to fund artwork for the game. Final art is expected before the November election. The images uploaded here on BGG are samples of the final art.

The core of the game is 24 presidents, divided up evenly among the players. Every turn, you draw five cards out of your deck and play them. Each president has a presidential power based on that president’s actual strengths (integrity, popularity, party building, policy leadership or maneuver). Presidents can also gang up to attack villains or recruit new cards into your deck.

After the other 12 villains have been defeated by the players, it’s time for a massive Final Showdown with Trump himself. If Trump captures all the presidents, he wins; if the players defeat him first, the player who is holding the most captured villains wins – but Trump himself counts as three villains for determining who wins. With this system, you can’t afford to sit back and let the other players do all the villain-fighting during the game before the Final Showdown, but in the end, victory will still hang on how well you do in that Final Showdown!

The game is already fully designed, playtested and web-published, so you can download it for print and play.
