Take power. Rule New York.

It is the 1850s, the era of Boss Tweed, and New York City’s immigration boom is in full swing. Tammany Hall – charged with settling European immigrants across the city’s many wards – is the dominant force in New York politics. You are an aspiring young politician, fighting for every scrap of influence you can get. That means sending out ward bosses, slandering your opponents, and currying favor with New York’s growing immigrant communities.

If you play your cards right, you might just become Mayor!

Tammany Hall is a game of backstabbing, corruption, temporary alliances, and taking power at all costs. If you want to rule New York, you are going to need to play the city’s growing immigrant populations against one another. Help immigrant groups to gain political favors, then call in those favors to slander your rivals and win the election.

This new edition contains updated artwork and shiny, new meeples.
