United Nations: A Game of World Domination in Our Time (1982)

About this game

United Nations: A Game of World Domination in Our Time is a multi-player light-weight board-wargame about negotiation, diplomacy and treaties published by Yaquinto in 1982. Players vie for control of 40 global areas by using political or military strength. Through the use of confrontation, negotiation, or the UN General Assembly and Security Council, areas are won or lost. Each game area is worth a certain number of prestige points... the player with the most prestige at the end of the game wins.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 4.
• Rules load. At 2.4/5 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.
