Planet B
Corrupt governors on a brand-new planet make crooked deals and chase the presidency.
Who it's for
You like long strategy games with a sharp, cynical sense of humor. A table that enjoys scheming together will love it.
Not for you if…
You want a short game or a gentle one. Three hours of political dealing is demanding, and the satire is not subtle.
Vibe's take
Long, scheming and funny in a bitter way. You wheel and deal, double-cross a little, and keep calculating where the votes and the money will come from. Expect a full evening and some banter.
About this game
Humanity found a second planet and promised to do everything right this time. Naturally, you are the corrupt governors who ruin it. In Planet B you make crooked deals with corporations, build up your city, put the population to work for you, climb the ladders of political factions and manipulate the news. It all costs something, and eventually you are running for president and need voters on your side. In the end only one thing counts: who pocketed the most government money. A long, satirical, strategy-heavy game of about three hours, for two to four players who enjoy dark humor with their worker placement.
