About the game
Le Cortège is a tactical flick game for two people about a public protest! One player acts as the Opposition and the other as the Power. With a mix of dexterity and strategy, move your units on the main board to try and win the game! · The Opposition has two ways to win. One is to takeover The Building: flick three red units in the blue circle on the board and that's it! The over is to win The Public Opinion: use the effects on your units and get strategic! · The Power, on the other hand, wins only by arresting all the red units of the Opposition, but beware of The Opinion! · A game is played in two rounds, as both players need to play both sides of Le Cortège! How to play : · At the beginning of each rounds, players first strategically place their units within their starting zone. The Opposition places first. · Then, starting with the Opposition, each player alternatively takes a turn and flicks one of his units. If the unit hits other units, only the first hit matters : if an effect can be triggered, do it and update the tracks on the board. If not, nothing happens. But "nothing" can be a strategic choice... Continue, one flick after the other, until someone wins the round! · At the end of the first round, change place around the board and play another round with the other faction. · At the end of the second round, someone will win : Won the two rounds? You win the game! Won one round each? Use the tiebreakers on the board : the one who scored the most on The Building track. the one who scored the most on The Opinion track. the one who scored the most on The Arrest track. Another tie? Play another game! —description from the designer
