0/10 by 0 users
Board games have had a surprising political and social impact in Britain the last 200 years. It was the British who developed the idea of the board game as an instrument of moral instruction and exported it to America, where it was adapted to promote the American Dream of free enterprise and economic success. This crusading element in board games is perhaps best exemplified by the best-selling game in history - Monopoly - which celebrated wealth and avarice in the wake of the Great Depression.
