It is a Satire of an end-of-the-world scenario fought mostly with nuclear weapons. Each player is in charge of a country, and the objective is to eliminate the populace of all other countries (players). While an opponent's population may be reduced with non-violent means (such as broadcasting propaganda that drives migration to other countries), the fastest and most frequent method is to launch nuclear warheads and vaporize millions. Other cards provide anti-missile defenses and specialized weapons systems like orbital platforms and unstoppable cruise missiles. Several expansions have been released, many of which can be played separately or with the original game, and highlights the worries of the end-of-the-world scenarios—including actual, theoretical and feared weapons—at the time of their releases. |
