Who it's for
Players drawn to American history and political strategy who want the theme carrying real mechanical weight.
Not for you if…
US legal history holds no appeal for you – the case cards are most of what makes this sing.
🦊
Vibe's take
Cerebral and argumentative – reading which way the bench will swing is the whole game, and the bench keeps changing underneath you.
