A comical cataclysmic card game for 2-6 players of all ages. A humorous confrontation between touchy world powers as each player attempts to sway his opponents' populations with diplomacy, propaganda, and finally nuclear weaponry. Little old ladies defect in electric cars and the dread SUPERGERM spreads devastation! Takes about 10 minutes to learn and about 30 minutes to play. Invented by Doug Malewicki in 1965, this game has remained popular for over 20 years. Anyone who ever had to participate in a Civil Defence Drill by hiding under his or her desk in school, or ever had a bomb shelter in the back yard should play this game. One of the few games where it is possible to have no winners (often everybody loses!).
Please note that Nuclear War was designed over 40 years ago and is still produced to a standard that was acceptable at the time, but may appear crude compared to current games. The rules are very basic and some of the components need cutting out from sheets.
