Description
Reign of Witches is a tableau-building game about America’s Quasi-War with France, as viewed through the lens of factional conflict within the Federalist Party. President John Adams, the hapless party leader, attempts to navigate political intrigues, public unrest, and other crises while being undermined by the High Federalists who owe their loyalty to inveterate intriguer Alexander Hamilton. Players buy cards from a market (you will need to provide ten of your own coins or tokens) and play them into their tableau to earn points in one of three spheres: Politics, Public Opinion, and Military. But you have to do more than outscore your opponent: while the Federalists are tearing each other apart, Vice President Thomas Jefferson is building support for his own bid for power. The player who bests their opponent in at least two categories and has a total score higher than Jefferson’s wins the game; fall short of that, and Jefferson wins the Presidency in 1800.
