Global Survival (1992)

About this game

This game features players "buying" countries based on where their pawns land on a Monopoly-style board - countries aren't "bought" but are invested in, and it is always an option. An Event book describes various world events that either help or hinder the "owners'" permanent or temporary syndicates. You fall in and out of alliances all throughout the game.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 8.
• Rules load. At 2.1/5 this is a mid-weight game — expect a proper rules explanation before you start.
• Age. The publisher suggests 14 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
