This game of luck and skill recreates the excitement of the World Cup soccer tournament. Can players guide a European team to victory in Uruguay in 1930? Or repeat Brazil’s 2002 triumph in the Far East? Players control the destinies of national teams, taking them through group and knock-out stages. Through card play, each player scores goals, presses attacks and shores up defenses, but fouls, offsides and penalties can thwart a strategy. Matches in each round are resolved simultaneously, so a complete tournament can be played in one to three hours. “Unique tournament replay style” sets this game apart, Shaun Derrick, designer and proprietor of Games for the World told TDmonthly. Launch date: June 2007.
