What is Powerplay: The Game of Knowledge and Strategy
POWERPLAY is a question and answer game of political and social issues. The questions are based on 5 categories (committees): War, Environment, Commerce, State (International politics and policies), and Domestic Policy (U.S. policies and public opinions). There is a range difficulty from "lots of people know this" to "Wow! I didn't know that." More difficult questions have multiple choice answers and higher point (vote) value. Using political reasoning and/or logic can yield a correct answer even when it is not initially known.
The board for POWERPLAY resembles a Senate chamber. Players are "Senators". Each player/team gets a "Committee Table". The object of the game is to correctly answer questions in each category to gain "Committee Seats" as well as more votes than your opponents.
Strategies that can be used include:
answering multiple choice questions correctly before the answers are read gives the player double the votes for that question
