Campaign Tour

About

Campaign Tour is a two player abstract strategy game of area control with an election theme. In the game, players visit regions of their country spending time meeting the people and buying air time to promote their views and rebuke their opponent‘s policies. The double-edged nature of political ads can turn away the voters but it’s a chance that must be taken. The player who best spends his or her resources of time and money will be elected and win the game. During the initial setup phase, players take turns adding region tiles into a 5 x 5 political landscape grid. Players take a set of handshake tokens and media tokens to be used during the game phase. During the game phase, players alternate turns. On a turn a player places a handshake token and then a media token. After each placement, the adjacent regions are checked for poll closings and voter turn out. If the polls are closed, as indicated when a region is completely surrounded by tokens, the players' tokens are tallied and which candidate wins the region is determimed. If the moving player wins a region, he or she is allowed an additional token placement. The first player to score more than 12 votes wins the election.
