W Zakładzie: Lubelski Lipiec '80 is a board game for 3-6 players about a Polish truck factory in the communist times of the 1980s. Players are workers at the truck factory, and each character has one specific goal to achieve in order to win, e.g., becoming the employee of the month or starting a strike; sometimes players can have opposing goals. One player per round may become the supervisor of the truck factory, and if the factory reaches 102% efficiency, the supervisor wins. During the game, players need to place three workers on the board to decide which segments of the board to activate, and players can collect tokens to play special cards or to try to become the supervisor.
