About Watergate: The Board Game

Card-Driven Game of the Most Notorious of Political Scandals. Will Nixon triumph in his tug of war with the Press or will the truth be exposed?

In Watergate, one player assumes the role of a Washington Post Journalist, while the other embodies the Nixon Administration—each with a unique set of cards. To win, the Nixon Administration must build up enough momentum to make it to the end of the presidential term, whereas the Journalist must gather enough evidence to connect two informants directly to the President. Of course, the administration will do all in its power to smother any evidence.

Watergate: The Board Game is a faithful adaptation of the original board game.
