About this game

Tiefe Taschen puts you in a room full of politicians who all claim to serve the public while quietly stuffing their own pockets. One player proposes how to split the state's money, everyone votes, but the real game happens under the table: slide a rival a secret bill and a request, and if they play along, the cash is theirs to keep. Everyone can bribe everyone, so alliances flip mid-vote and yesterday's ally is suddenly bought off by someone else. Sharp, cynical fun for a group that enjoys watching each other's principles crumble for cash.
