Beschreibung:
Americana: The Card Game is a historical, luck-based game set in mid-20th century America. It can be played with 2-6 players at a time. Your goal is to achieve the American Dream by playing enough positive-value cards to reach a net point total of 10+.

Americana: The Card Game tackles complicated issues such as intersectionality, discrimination, and more with gameplay that is straightforward and easy to pick up. Like our gender, race, social status, and so on, much of Americana: The Card Game comes down to chance, and player skill is not a necessity. Games can include 2-6 players and typically take around 15 minutes to play. However, due to the randomized nature of the game and the large deck, Americana: The Card Game can be played many times over and still be just as fun and interesting.

Each of the 108 cards centers on a historical event, popular culture, or some other aspect of mid-20th century life. In addition to a brief description for each card, most cards also include a hand-drawn illustration and a metaphorical in-game action, representing its real-world historical impact. Educating players on the realities of this time — both the good and the bad — is an important focus of our design. As such, we've spent a lot of time researching the subject matter of the cards in an effort to accurately represent this period of American history while still demonstrating how circumstance and identity made the American Dream more or less achievable.
