From BoardGameGeek
A Mission to Save the Music and the Future of a Nation Dive into the interactive world of Operation CanCon, where your mission is to collect Canadian Content. Navigate Eighties music stores in search of iconic songs. The hope of a country's future will depend on preserving its cultural artifacts. Using dice and a checklist, take your chances with the Sweep minigame, a treasure hunt where every roll reveals another hit. It's not all random chance, however. Your decisions really matter. Choose which tracks to target, which stores to visit, and how long to search. How will you spend your limited time in Toronto? Whether you play a single game or a multi-day campaign, you'll discover opportunities for tactics and strategy. Advanced modes, tweaks, and New Game Plus provide even more challenges. Perfect for gamers, music lovers, and fans of Canadiana, Operation CanCon is a new take on nostalgia. With an interactive narrative, flexible gameplay, and customizable goals, it's more than a game, it's a retro celebration. -description from the designer
