Hegemony: Lead Your Class to Victory – Extended Edition

Simulate a contemporary nation in an asymmetric, politico-economic card-driven game for 2–4 players. Each player controls one socio-economic bloc—the working class, the middle class, the capitalist class, or the state—and pursues class-specific goals by managing workers, companies, benefits and taxes while navigating shared policy areas like taxation, labor market and trade. Play centers on drafting and playing cards, voting to change policies, influencing institutions, and responding to events; strategic planning and political maneuvering shift power between classes. This Extended Edition adds the Crisis & Control content: extra cards, crisis response and alternative event mechanics, hidden class agendas and solo/automa options.
