Inevitable

Inevitable is a comic board game of post-apocalyptic politics, designed by myself and Jonathan Leistiko. It was released in 2010 after a successful Kickstarter campaign—it is believed to be the first tabletop game ever funded through Kickstarter.

Inevitable provides 2-6 players with hours of quality entertainment, danger, violence, betrayal, mayhem, and laughs.

Inevitable is a hybrid of the chance-based pleasures of roll-and-move games, the wheeling and dealing of negotiation-based games, the drama and tension of collaborative beat-the-system games, and the narrative richness of character-driven role-playing games.

In a world ravaged by apocalypse, humanity lives under the rule of HappyCOM-9, an all-powerful yet badly confused computer overlord. As the champion of one of the most powerful factions in the City, your goal is to seize power from HappyCOM-9 in a terrifying, bloody Election. In order to succeed, you will need to best your opponents, avoid HappyCOM-9's defenses and shock troops, weather the twists and turns of cruel fate, and, uh, not die. Or at least not die too often.

Inevitable was produced in an edition of 500, and it is now sold out.
