Taste of Power: the great municipal socialism game<\/i> is a mass-participatory role-playing exercise designed to teach activists about how to operate in and against the local state. In this game, a recently elected Labour Left local council must battle with the legacy of their neoliberal predecessors and halt a disastrous redevelopment scheme. The game will be hosted and umpired by Class Wargames, designers of The World Transformed 2017’s A Very British Coup<\/i> mega-game. A Taste of Power<\/em> was specially produced for TWT<\/a>‘s 2019 festival in Brighton. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
