Poll & Write 2024

About this game

Roll and (re)write the 2024 UK general election in the tense electoral strategy game for British politicos. A truly competitive roll & write – NOT your usual multiplayer solitaire! Pick from seven political parties contesting the 2024 general election with the aim of winning a majority of the battleground constituencies to enter government. The 'main' parties (Labour and Conservatives) aim to win a majority, while the five 'minor' parties (Liberal Democrats, Scottish National Party, Plaid Cymru, Greens, and Reform UK) are intensely thematic asymmetric factions with their own win condition. Each turn the leading player rolls two dice. All players write these numbers on their party sheets, completing and promoting policies, hammering home slogans, and securing donations. Completed sections of the party sheet allow players to claim voters in battleground constituencies, until one party wins a plurality of voters in each constituency. Winning a majority of constituencies means you enter government and win the game. Available in 2024 as a print at home game – approx. 1 A4 sheet per player, plus 1 map sheet and rules. Grab a pair of dice and pencils, and the game is on! —description from the publisher
