Conclave 1492

•
Conclave 1492 is a 40-person negotiation exercise set during the papal election of 1492, the most complex, high-stakes political event of the Renaissance. Play an ambitious cardinal, a mighty king, a daring queen, or a lowly Vatican functionary. You'll arrive with allies, rivals, secrets, and leverage, but so will everyone else. Over four afternoons, you'll scheme, bargain, cross, double-cross, and occasionally pray for salvation. And halfway through, one of you will be crowned Pope.
