Lie, Cheat & Steal (1971)

About this game

Lie, Cheat & Steal is a political simulation in which the players are trying to be elected to public office. Unlike most political simulations, which are based on how elections are supposed to be run, Lie, Cheat & Steal uses true political methods of vote buying, libel and under the table deals to advance to office. contents: -16 Black Eye cards -16 Feather-In-Your-Cap cards -24 $ cards** -game board -rulebook -6 pawns -2 dice -Money -vote cards $ Cards - 2each (1 collect, 1 pay) nothing 10,000 20,000 30,000 40,000 50,000 60,000 70,000 80,000 90,000 4-100,000 1-80,000

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 6.
• Rules load. At 1.4/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 12 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
