Die Macher is a complex strategic game that simulates the German political system. Players take on the roles of leaders of political parties and compete in seven regional elections across Germany. The goal is to align party policies with public opinion, manage the media, gain members, and win elections—all within a framework that reflects real political dynamics.
The game is designed for 3–5 players and lasts 2–3 hours. Each party has its own platform that can be adjusted based on public opinion in each region. Players perform various actions such as conducting polls, organizing party meetings, influencing the media, changing policies, managing resources, and negotiating. Elections take place in seven regions, each with different public opinions and political environments. The winner is the player who collects the most electoral points, policy points, and membership points.
Die Macher is an excellent choice for anyone interested in political strategy, historical context, and deep tactical gameplay where every move matters. 🗳️
