Description Edit | History

This Avalon Hill game is a vehicle for instructing students (there is a classroom section in the rules) on why Marxism is superior. The Workers move around a board while trying to survive against the Capitalist who control everything. As the Workers unite they take power from the Capitalist players but if they do not suceed in uniting the Capitalist will win.

The Marxist politics are very up front in this game in presentation and in the suggested reading in the rules. A surprising publication from a war game company

Designed by Dr. Bertel Ollman

A simple game based on a highly controversial subject matter which has succeeded in gaining a great deal of publicity. Although at first AH sold only existing inventory, it was later repackaged and revised in an attempt to improve its play value.
