The People's Champion
A Trading Card Game For Good
The political system is COM-PLI-CATED and yet it is connected so much to what is possible in the world around us. Working to break down barriers to our system we created a Trading Card Game where resources, leaders, and actions play into creating policy change.
Additionally to learning about government our game engages the creative problem solving skills of those playing! With over 100 cards it will be up to you to decide what strategy to use to fight to become “The People’s Champion”
Project Background
​
Community Driven Group is a social impact organization with the goal of bringing people together around the brightest leaders, communities, ideas, and solutions for positive impact, growth, and experiences!
This card game was designed to create an effective tool for helping discuss and teach principles of policy design, politics, and local government structures. For example the 4 main resources you use in the game are creativity, capital, goodwill, and influence - all four are things that help move forward change where you are from. We plan to create an education and activity guide alongside the production to help families, classrooms, and communities enjoy and use these cards to the fullest!
​
This game has a Colorado focus but the concepts can be applied to other States and Democracies. In my initial prototype and design I have been using my photography, AI images, and sometimes a mix as I run a photo of mine through a AI prompt. In the final production we plan to work with multiple artists to create the final art for cards and decks!
