Dual Powers: Revolution 1917

Two rival authorities vie for control of Petrograd and the direction of post-Tsarist Russia. Players take the roles of competing political factions, using cards and actions to mobilize supporters, influence institutions, and deploy military force across the city. Gameplay mixes area control, event-driven decisions, and leadership figures whose abilities shift the balance of power. The game resolves after a set sequence of rounds; the side with greater popular and institutional support determines whether civil conflict erupts or is suppressed.

    Solo play only, but there it shines as a brain burning area control master piece. Add the historical context and this becomes a great package!

    Un juego muy especial para mí. Lo compré en plena pandemia, cuando no se podía salir y lo he jugado con mi hijo mayor. Uno de los pocos juegos que le gustan!!!!. Siempre estará en mi corazón.
