Description
"I say that as a city we are the school of Hellas." - Pericles
Who is more sophisticated, Croesus of Cleisthenes? Who is more remembered today, Leonidas or Xerxes? Step back to the dawn of democracy with CARD-tamen™ Greece!
CARD-tamen™ is an exciting new card game developed by The Pericles Group (www.practomime.com). Intended to promote intelligent discussion and debate about a myriad of topics, CARD-tamen™ consists of decks of CARDs (Classical Attunement Reward Devices) organized around particular themes. Players have two minutes to provide the most compelling argument as to why their chosen CARD wins a controversy from a list provided with the game.
CARD-tamen™ Greece, The Pericles Group's second CARD-tamen™ set, is designed to accompany the Operation MENIS program. CARD-tamen™ Greece also works beautifully as a stand-alone game involving topics from Ancient Greek culture. This game plays well in any setting, in or out of the classroom.
A rules card and card containing the controversies is included with the game. A d20 (not necessary, but encouraged, for play) is not included.
All CARD-tamen™ Decks are completely compatible with one another. You can mix and match for incredible play discussions.
