After an intense election where name-calling, lying and bullying was often seen in the behavior of someone who will soon be President of the United States, this political game was created to spread more positivity in the world.

The game was designed to negate some of the negativity that has continued to worsen for many in the country, and is titled 'Make America Kind Again' -- a riff on a well-known and heavily criticized campaign slogan. Each deck contains 56 cards that feature good deeds for the player to accomplish and once finished, they can pass on the card to someone else.

This political game aims to send some positive messaging out into the world in a time where many people feel disillusioned by the state of politics and social issues in the United States.
