I Play Treason Season!
A timely political commentary in the form of a 1 page solitaire game by Errin Famiglia, a true game master. If you take cautionary tales like A Brave New World seriously, study history like the McCarthy Era or just ever wanted to rule Illuminati style, then this game is for you.In Treason Season it is decided within a few turns whether you make it in the halls of power vying for leadership of the Great State or face persecution, possibly surviving to play on as treasonous Freedom Fighter. Either way you need all the tools of a politician to survive: Amorality, Religiosity, Warmongering, Disinformation, Bureaucracy and Patriotism.You must use these means of the corrupt on Big Brother missions, in order to either gain Prestige or become Treasonous.A major victory is to prove your villainy and become Leader of the Great State.This game is fun and only really needs the page, a d6 and a pencil to play. You might shorten that list to the sheet and a pencil by coming up with a thicker sheet and adding a spinney wheel or something as some one suggested else where for a game. Since I took a class on politics I couldn't help noticing how a rise to power in the game is a like an election, all it needs is the fund raising and bribes. Play it now, and see what the 2008 elections in America might be like.
