Description
Fishing for Terrorists is a hilarious and action-packed card game where you get to be the head of a government agency, fighting against terrorism and trying to capture as many terrorists as possible. But here's the catch - it's not just about catching the bad guys, it's also about outsmarting and outmaneuvering the other agencies to get ahead. This game is all about inter-agency squabbling, and if you've ever seen it happen in real life, you'll recognize the humor and satire that's woven throughout the gameplay. With simple rules that can be explained quickly, Fishing for Terrorists is easy to pick up and play, even for those who are new to card games or board games in general. The game mechanics are based on memory and set collection, which adds a fun and challenging layer to the gameplay. You'll need to remember which cards have been played and which ones are still in the deck, all while trying to collect the right combinations of cards to capture those terrorists. And with the ability to play with 2 to 6 players, you can gather a group of friends or coworkers and have a blast competing against each other. The gameplay is fast-paced and exciting, with each game lasting around 45 minutes, so you can play a few rounds in one sitting. As a game that was first published in 2004, Fishing for Terrorists has stood the test of time, and its humor and satire are still relevant today. The game designers, Geoff Bottone and Colleen Skadl, have created a game that's not only fun to play but also pokes fun at the bureaucratic world of government agencies. So if you're looking for a game that's a little bit funny, a little bit strategic, and a whole lot of fun, then Fishing for Terrorists is the perfect choice. Whether you're a fan of card games, humor, or just want to try something new, this game is sure to deliver.
