Landslide (board game)

Landslide is a strategic board game for 2-4 players, typically involving area control, resource management, and political maneuvering. The game's central theme usually revolves around competing factions vying for power and influence within a region or state facing instability.

Gameplay often involves players deploying units (represented by tokens or miniatures) to control territories, collect resources (such as money, votes, or influence), and enact policies that benefit their faction while hindering their opponents. Strategic alliances and betrayals are common occurrences as players adapt to the ever-changing political landscape.

Winning Landslide typically requires accumulating a predetermined number of victory points or achieving a specific objective, such as controlling key territories or enacting a set of political policies. The game often incorporates elements of negotiation and bluffing, as players must convince their opponents to support their proposals or misdirect them about their true intentions.

The specific rules and mechanics of Landslide can vary depending on the game's edition and designer, but the core elements of area control, resource management, and political influence are generally present. The game seeks to simulate the complexities and uncertainties of political campaigns and power struggles, emphasizing strategic thinking and adaptable gameplay.
