Description

Bloc by Bloc: The Insurrection Game is a semi-cooperative tabletop game where 2 to 4 players take on the roles of different factions of revolutionaries, fighting against the State in a city that changes with each game. The game is inspired by 21st century protest movements, riots, and popular uprisings, and players must work together to build barricades, clash with riot cops, occupy districts, and liberate the city before time runs out and the military arrives. With easy-to-learn rules, the game is accessible to new players, but its depth and complexity will keep experienced gamers engaged for 120 to 180 minutes. As players navigate the modular board, they'll need to manage their actions carefully, using dice rolls and loot cards to enhance their abilities. But beware - each faction has its own secret agenda, and while some will need to cooperate to win, others may be working against the social insurrection. The game features a unique blend of action points, area majority, and variable player powers, making each playthrough unique. With brand new art, streamlined gameplay, and improved components, the 2nd edition of Bloc by Bloc is a must-play for fans of political and territory-building games. Will you be able to liberate the city and achieve your faction's goals, or will the State crush the insurrection? There's only one way to find out.
