    Description

    Presidents Versus is an action-packed, fun-filled, 30-minute card game for 1-4 players. America is in peril, and the presidents – from George Washington to Barack Obama – have all come back together to save us! Playable options for the “Big Bad” they’re saving us from include a pandemic, dictators, monsters, aliens and more. But while the portal to the past was open, the villains of American history – from Benedict Arnold to Bull Connor – have come back to stop the presidents and ensure America’s downfall. The battle for our country is on!

    Publisher’s product page

    The core of the game is 24 presidents, divided up evenly among the players. At the beginning of the game, you select a Big Bad that’s trying to destroy America. Every turn, you draw five cards out of your deck and play them. Each president has a presidential power based on that president’s actual strengths (such as popularity, party building or policy leadership). Presidents can also join forces to attack villains together, or recruit new cards into your deck. You can add to your deck cards that represent support from other presidents (hello, Millard Fillmore!), constitutional provisions that give powers to the presidency, and other forces from American history. These support cards interact with keywords on your presidents and other game factors, giving you tactical choices.

    The players use their attacks to capture 12 villains from American history. Then it’s time for the Final Showdown with the Big Bad that’s trying to destroy America, represented by a set of threat cards. The rules for the Final Showdown are different for each Big Bad – fighting off a pandemic and fighting off monsters require different tactics! If the Big Bad defeats your presidents, it wins; if you defeat it first, the player with the most captured villains and Big Bad threat cards wins. So there’s pressure to be capturing villains for the whole game, but victory still hangs on that Final Showdown.
