Description Description
Your goal in The March of Progress is to control countries through the playing of action cards so that you generate victory points (VPs) during scoring. Whoever has the most VPs at the end of the game wins. In the game, each side has a hand of eight action cards, ranging from Move to Attack to Recruit. Each player simultaneously chooses one card to play each turn, then reveals and carries out the action. Cards stay discarded until a player plays their score card after which they regain all played cards. The March of Progress includes an introductory scenario based on The Thirty Years War to set out the core rules of the game. The game includes four additional historical scenarios: The Age of Marlborough, Vive l’Empereur, World War 1 in the West, and World War 2 in the West. Each scenario changes the set-up and tweaks the rules to give a flavor of strategy in different time periods. The scenarios create a varied and challenging two-player game. —description from designer

10.0/10

Quite an amazing game for such a small one. The game gives a genuine entry into top level strategy, and is quite tense given the reveal mechanism. So much thought in this, and it will pay not steaming through it as fast as possible. A much more substantial experience than it first seems.

9.0/10

A surprising game for those who enjoy the theme and the simultaneous action mechanics. High replayability, as small changes in scenarios lead to major shifts in strategy.

Nice concept. Feels a bit brutal, one mistake may cost you the whole game. I like the WW1 scenario very much.

8.0/10

What starts out as a relatively simple card-action-move system quickly descends into second-guessing madness and careful timing calculation. This is not a bad thing. The scenarios change things up in all sorts of interesting ways with little bits of thematic chrome that make them feel different.
