Senate: The Argument Game

What is Senate: The Argument Game

In Senate the Argument Game, you are a senator in the esteemed Roman senate. Think up the most mischievous Propositions for your peers to act out. But be careful, arguing and getting your way in the Senate requires quick wit and strategy.

As any good senator, you must use your Influence to acquire new arguments on the start of every round. The goal is to end up as on the winning team at the end of the round by Objecting arguments or Supporting those who are already winning. The round starts when a Senator makes a Proposition and ends when the senator who started the round plays their eighth turn. Everyone on the losing team must then act out the Proposition. The game ends when every senator has had the chance to make one Proposition.

Members of the winning and losing teams switch frequently throughout the round and Influence keeps changing hands due to yours and other senators' actions, so manage your arguments well. Betrayal, deception, and even begging - everything goes when reputations are at stake.
