Play card game

Anything else you want to tell people about your game?
I made this game because I noticed during my research that there are very few cooperative card games that use a standard deck of playing cards. Now, there is one more cooperative card game in the world!

By the way, thanks for sharing this as well! - really cool and I love the premise and the fact that you can play it with just a pack of cards. I also really like how abstract it is, yet carries a kind of radical politics in a quiet way. I haven’t had a chance to play it but it feels like it might have strategic depth plus a nice kind of “Are we telepathic?” vibe.

I was wondering if there might be less hierarchical ways of describing the two roles, maybe? Although I haven’t really come up with any good suggestions. Maybe “Community” supplying the resources and “Planners / Workers / Activists” making the sets, or something like that? 

It would be a totally different game, but it could be cool to have a version where you lay down a border of cards face up, and the card values are somehow integrated into the puzzle of dismantling the border?

Love the idea you mentioned in your comment of some kind of Augusto Boal / Paulo Freire jam too.
