51st State is a card game in which players control one of four powers trying to build a new country. Players put new locations into play, hire leaders, and send people to work in buildings to gain resources and new skills. To do this, every card in 51st State can be used in three different ways:
- Raze a location to gain many resources once.
- Deal with this location to gain one resource every turn.
- Build the location so that you can use its skill each turn.
The following expansions are included: New Era, Winter, Scavengers, Allies, Moloch, and No Man's Land.
