Capital Punishment
Out Of Stock
Description
This game was published for political reasons, to 'make' a point. That it turns out to be somewhat enjoyable is purely coincidental.In this game, a player may win by maneuvering all four of his 'criminals' in such a way that they are all in Life Imprisonment, Death Row or the Electric Chair. Or the player may use his two 'liberals' to spring the opposing players' criminals from the 'Path of Justice' back to the Street often enough to turn all fifteen of each opponent's Innocent Citizens into Victims of violent crimes. Victims go to Heaven.The political commentary is extremely heavy-handed, but once you've rolled your eyes often enough and abstracted it, the game can be a lot of fun. - BoardGameGeek
