Watergate wins the Golden Geek award for best 2-player game

We are delighted to announce that our Watergate game has won the prestigious Golden Geek Award for best 2-player game . What makes this award unique is that it's the users of the prestigious Board Game Geek , the leading website for board games, who vote for the best game. With over 10,000 votes, Watergate has been chosen by fans as the best game of 2019. From Salt & Pepper Games we want to thank all the fans who voted for Watergate , and all the fans of the game, of which we know there are many. But that's not the only award the game is receiving. The prestigious channel The Dice Tower included Watergate in its Top 10 of 2019 , and the Board Game Quest website also considers it the best 2-player game of the year.

Watergate is a two-player card-driven game about the most notorious political scandal of the 20th century. In Watergate , one player takes on the role of a newspaper editor, while the other embodies the Nixon administration – and each player has a different set of cards.

To win, the Nixon administration must garner enough support to last until the end of the term, while the editor must gather enough evidence to directly link two informants to the president. Of course, the administration will do everything in its power to suppress that evidence. Watergate is available at major board game stores in your city.
