Revolution!

Players secretly allocate colored bidding tokens to contest control of colonial-themed locations, using Gold, Blackmail, and Force to outmaneuver opponents. Each round features a simultaneous auction resolved with private shields; winning bids earn victory points, territory control tokens (which score at game end), and resources for future rounds. Play revolves around bluffing, counter-bluffing, and timing—deciding when to contest the tavern, fortress, harbor, or plantation and when to retreat to conserve assets. Designed for three to four players, the game plays in under an hour and emphasizes short, tactical auctions and shifting area control.

    Wife does not like this game at all. Kids liked it though. I would like to play this with a group of adults.
