Stimmvieh (1998)

About this game

Stimmvieh is a game for party secretaries about collecting the largest donations for your party. However, votes are also valuable, as the player who has collected the most votes in the end may double the donations. Everyone starts with an equally powerful team of politicians. However, you already have to decide whether you're hunting for votes or donations when you nominate your top candidates.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 3 to 5.
• Rules load. At 2.3/5 this is a mid-weight game — expect a proper rules explanation before you start.
• Age. The publisher suggests 12 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
