Mud by Pillbox Games (B&N Exclusive)

Lie, cheat, steal, or simply play well to influence the next presidential election. MUD is a take-that, strategy card game that lets you play as dirty is you want! Take turns playing voter cards from your hand on a four-region “map” of the USA in front of you—your goal is to be the first one to collect 4 voters in all 4 regions (northeast, south, midwest, and west). Use RAT cards to affect the game to your advantage (stealing voters, spying, etc.), but every time you use a RAT, you must draw a Scandal card. These Scandals contain random unique punishments and lie face down in front of you until someone plays a DIG card and exposes you! It’s a game of risk and reward, perfect for casual to serious gamers, and requires no political or USA knowledge whatsoever
