Hindsight 2020 is a cutthroat party game where players will compete as different nations to survive the wild year of 2020. Check the news, enact policies, protect your citizens, and sabotage rivals with the goal of being the last nation standing.
Small game nights were the extent of our social interactions during COVID lockdowns.. On the way home one night, we had the thought: "what if there were a game where players faced the unrelenting craziness of 2020?"
We jokingly tossed around a few ideas until we realized we were onto something. Like most of us, we had found ourselves suddenly unemployed due to COVID and needed anywhere to focus our time and energy.
Unbeknownst to each other, we had both created board games as kids.
We liked the idea of creating together and spent hours brainstorming ideas, reflecting on the year, and ironing out game mechanics. Viewing the events of 2020 in a comedic light was fun for us, our play-testers, and hopefully you!
