PUBLISH OR PERISH WINAY KAWSAY BOARD GAME (JAN249266)

Machu Picchu has captivated the imagination of the world and academia alike. There's been plenty of theories about what its purpose could have been. Was it a lost city? Perhaps a citadel? Or maybe something else entirely? In Publish or Perish: Wiñay Kawsay (roughly pronounced win-nyay cow-say) you will step into the shoes of historical scholars! Uncover artifacts, reexamine evidence-publish your histories, and navigate the impact of your actions on this enigmatic wonder. In the deeply competitive world of publish-or-perish academia, will you succeed in influencing perception of what Machu Picchu really was? Or will your theories be one of many forgotten attempts at unravelling this mystery? Publish or Perish was a finalist for the Zenobia Award, a competition and mentoring program in which game designers from underrepresented groups develop and submit historical tabletop game prototypes.
