Winner of the 2008 International Gamer Awards best two-player strategy game and nominated for numerous other awards, 1960: Making of the President is widely recognized as the best U.S. presidential election game ever made. Of course, the inspiration for this design is derived from GMT's blockbuster card-driven game, Twilight Struggle. So we are pleased to announce that 1960: The Making of the President is coming home to GMT in an all-new edition, just in time for you to argue with your uncle over the 2016 presidential elections.

For those of you unfamiliar, in 1960: The Making of the President, players take on the role of Kennedy or Nixon vying for the right to lead the United States during the heart of the Cold War. However, it is not just foreign policy that poses a challenge to American leadership; the year 1960 is also synonymous with great social upheaval and progress. The candidates must deal with the question of civil rights and balance their positions on social justice against the need for valuable Southern electoral votes. Of course, the ever-present issue of the economy also rears its ugly head, and both Nixon and Kennedy will vie to be the candidate with the voters' pocket books in mind.
