For The People (Pre-Owned)

For The People is a trick-taking card game in which each player takes on the role of a political party leader, aiming to collect as many policies as possible that align with their party’s manifesto.

During each session of Parliament (a trick), every party leader plays one policy card. Only the policy with the highest level of public interest (i.e. the strongest card) is voted on. The leader who played that card wins the trick and takes all the policy cards submitted by the players.
However, in a nation where public interest in politics is low, it’s possible for corrupt policies (black cards) to be voted on first. Honest and transparent parties may sometimes find themselves outmanoeuvred by those engaging in malfeasance.

When Parliament adjourns, each party gains or loses points based on how many policy cards they have collected that match their manifesto, as well as the number of other policies they have acquired. The goal is to end the game with the highest total score.
