President Bush Receives CIVIO Game

Just prior to the election, we sent President Bush a copy of CIVIO. Then we learned that Alberto Gonzales was nominated to replace Attorney General Ashcroft and sent him a copy of CIVIO. Each of them has responded. Of course we pray that each of them also play the game because they might learn a thing or two!

Product description copy

CIVIO - A civil rights game

CIVIO is a strategy card game that explores the relationship of issues, freedoms, laws, and Supreme Court cases that have both strengthened and reduced civil liberties. Each player starts as an intern at a law firm specializing in civil rights. Using a handful of cards representing laws, Supreme Court decisions, constitutional amendments, key issues, rights and freedoms, players race to combine these cards into precedents.

(2-4 players, Ages: 13 - Adult)
