Description
Get ready to shape the future of a nation in Founding Fathers, a game where you'll take on the role of a founding father aiming to gain the most renown by the end of the game. With 3 to 5 players, you'll navigate the complexities of creating the US constitution over 90 minutes of playtime. Each round, an article of the constitution is up for debate, and you'll use your hand of delegate cards to vote, claim tokens, or utilize special abilities to influence the outcome. As you vote with the majority or collect tokens matching the issue types, you'll score points and move closer to your goal. With a mix of area majority, hand management, and card drafting mechanics, Founding Fathers offers a engaging and challenging experience. Designed by Christian Leonhard and Jason Matthews, this 2010 game is perfect for those familiar with board games, and its normal complexity rules make it easy to learn and dive into the world of politics and strategy.
