From publishers website: Low budget original board game for 2 – 4 players, packaged in the foil as a magazine. Strategy and combining game from the political scene in some unnamed country. Each player try to gain a post in four main departments – the Ministry of Finance, the Church, the Espionage and the Ministry of Defence. Bürokros is a humorous Czech political game. Each player leads a political party and tries to gain power in a country by installing his/her people to one of four offices. But the installment itself brings no power. You have to have most influence in the office to gain various posts. You have to crawl the pyramid up to the top to gain power over the office. Some of the higher posts also bring specific powers, you can use each round, as long as you're in the function. You can also gain some other powers or effects by wisely investing. You can recruit faster, or send enemies to prison. only the one, who can rule all of the offices can rule the country. Having a very nice price for such a game, it is a cheap print on waxed paper, cut-before-play, but with some colour (all the chits, the board itself and the power cards are black and white), and especially if laminated can remain for a long time.
