Maktkampen 2014

Maktkampen (The Powerstruggle) is a light card game where you and your friends collects points through playful challenges.

But below the surface another game is hiding, where all players secretly tries to influence the behaviour of their opponents using psychological tricks.

Maktkampen is a game that doesn't end when the cards are back in the box. Will you win by keeping your head cool and manage to manipulate your friends, or will you loose yourself when reality and game mixes together?

Be prepared for a laugh inducing, shattering and occasionally shocking experience, signed by Henrik Fexeus - Swedens most famous mentalist and psychological manipulator.

Rules in short:

At the beginning of the game every player gets three cards numbered 1, 2 and 3 (these are used for different challenges), and five red mission cards of which three is kept and two is discarded. The player whose turn it is takes a blue challenge card and challenges an opponent. If the player succeeds with the challenge the card is placed face down in front of him/her as a point marker. If the player did not succeed the card is placed at the bottom of the blue deck. Anytime during the game a player can follow the instructions on his/her red mission cards. The card is not revealed until the player succeeds with the mission and is then placed on the table as a point marker. Then the player draws a new mission card. Blue cards are worth 1 point and red cards 2 points. The first to get 7 points wins the game.
