## Description
Get ready for a fierce political battle in the steampunk universe of Koryŏ! In this fast-paced game full of twists, you and your opponents take on the roles of influential figures seeking power through political families. Each of the eight rounds, everyone secretly chooses which politician family to play, based on the cards in their hand. The cool part is you can play as many cards as you want from the chosen family, but beware: the family's value determines both the strength of your play and the victory points you'll accumulate at the end. 

Each family has a special power that activates each round, and using these abilities wisely is the key to victory. As the game progresses, your influence grows, but the number of cards you can draw each turn decreases, making each decision even more crucial. It's a game of gambles, bluffs, and anticipation, where the best management of your resources and reading your opponent determine who comes out on top. Perfect for those who enjoy card games with a strategic twist and a dash of controlled chaos, and the best part: a game takes no more than 20 minutes to complete. Ideal for warming up the table or for that quick game at the end of the day!
