WAR ON TERROR, THE BOARD GAME: It’s got suicide bombers, political kidnaps and intercontinental war. It’s got filthy propaganda, rampant paranoia and secret treaties and the Axis of Evil is a spinner in the middle of the board Product Features political kidnaps propaganda suicide bomber WAR ON TERROR
Spin the Axis of Evil! After having seen this game mentioned on the Web many months ago, I finally obtained a copy when a US distributor got on board. Don’t listen to the hype about this game sympathizing with political Terrorists, it does so no more than Risk encourages military hegemony or Monopoly causes the real estate bubble. It plays very much like those games, and like Anti-Monopoly with the added aspect of an NPC player: the Terrorists.
Truth, Justice, and a Healthy Slice Of Oil-Rich Land: How WOT Can Help YOU! The game is a well-designed product which has elements from many popular games, so picking it up is no challenge for anyone familiar with 19th Century World Domination Game, 20th Century Real Estate Robber Baron Game, Abstract German Island Game, any game involving the reading of cards, and the general concepts of lying, cheating, backstabbing, brown-nosing, bulldozing, pyromania, monomania, paranoia, politics, and pushing your superior agenda onto the rest of the world.
War has never been so much fun! Be a superpower! Be a terrorist! Start as one, become the other! Wear an itchy balaclava with EVIL written on it! Laugh a lot!
