'Trumped up Cards: The World's Biggest Deck' Game Announced

[img][/img]

Election year always produces pop-culture parody. This year it happened with comics (see “Confessions of a Comic Book Guy - Everything's Political”), it happened with Cards Against Humanity’s America Votes expansion packs, and now a new partisan card game has emerged: Trumped up Cards: The World’s Biggest Deck.

The game is designed by Reid Hoffman, co-founder of LinkedIn. The game pokes fun at presidential candidate Donald Trump. Players draw 10 white cards, which contains potential ways to complete a phrase from the deck of blue cards, which is drawn by the CEO (Card Evaluating Officer) for the round. The players submit a potential answer from their hands, and the CEO choses the winner. Beware, there are powerful Trump Cards in the white card deck, which contain “larger-than-average” powers. The winner of the round gets the blue card, and the first player to spell out V-O-T-E in blue cards wins the game.
