Portable Doubt Is Our Product Collection [XoZ7rDEf]

Doubt as the Core of the Game

"Portable Doubt Is Our Product Collection [XoZ7rDEf]" is a groundbreaking game design by Amabel Holland, renowned for her work in the industry with games like Nicaea and Endurance. This 90-minute, two-player game is designed to explore the complex and often disturbing relationship between the tobacco industry and the movement fighting against its harmful practices. With a high solitaire suitability, this game is not just for players looking to engage in a political debate but also for those who enjoy deep, asymmetrical gameplay.

Asymmetrical Gameplay and Political Themes

In "Portable Doubt Is Our Product Collection [XoZ7rDEf]," the gameplay is divided into two distinct experiences. The Company, representing the tobacco industry, engages in economic deckbuilding, strategically setting up for big profits and actions. On the other side, the Movement, representing the opposition, builds a political tableau, advocating for legislation and regulation. This asymmetry is most evident in the disinformation war, where the Company player can easily spread misinformation, while the Movement must work tirelessly to counteract it. The game vividly illustrates Brandolini’s Law: "the amount of energy needed to refute bullshit is an order of magnitude bigger than that needed to produce it." This makes for a highly engaging and thought-provoking experience.
