In Bloc by Bloc, players are working cooperatively in order to try to take control of the city. The Man (represented, in a nice touch, as white cubes) is trying to keep you down, and to take over the city, you’ll need to crash barricades, flip cop cars, turn random items into improvised weaponry and attend secret meetings. If you’re successful, you’ll ‘occupy’ the district, flipping it over from it’s black-and-white side. Thus, as your revolution spreads, you’ll bring color back to the world (another nice, subtle touch).
Bloc by Bloc‘s ranking is a lot lower than it used to be. That said, this is called ‘The Insurrection Game’ for good reason, and there’s a good chance the subject matter will…. raise in relevance in the next four years. Stay tuned!
