Votes for Women

A card-driven simulation of the American women's suffrage movement from 1848 to 1920, focused on the fight to ratify the proposed Nineteenth Amendment. Players take distinct roles as Suffrage advocates or Opposition, drawing from personal decks, bidding on strategy cards, and resolving six rounds per turn where cards trigger historical events or are discarded to campaign, organize, or lobby Congress. Victory depends on legislative and state-level outcomes: the Suffrage side must secure Congressional passage and three-quarters of state ratifications, while the Opposition wins by blocking passage or accumulating a threshold of state rejections. The game supports competitive, cooperative, and solitaire play, with an automated Opponent for solo modes.

Maybe I do not get the rules but it looks like to me extremely easy for opponent and very hard and frustrating for suffragette Unfortunately While the theme is incredibly relevant today and the extensive archival work is impressive, the final execution misses the mark. The cards are just cards and the theme relies too heavily on flavor text that just doesn't hit home
