A game of failure
CATASTROPHE
Welcome to the official website for the CATASTROPHE board game! Through the use of strategy - and a little luck from dice rolls - you and other players can work together (or against each other) to deploy operations and attempt to accomplish what the United States government never could... But beware! As the U.S. government quickly found out, assassinating Castro may be much harder than you think.

CATASTROPHE
Gameplay overview
In CATASTROPHE, players assume the roles of rival CIA agents tasked with the elimination of Cuban dictator Fidel Castro. As was the case in real life, this operation will always end in failure, so the player’s goal is to save their job by making their fellow agents look as incompetent as possible. To accomplish this goal, players will collect sets of resources to plan operations across Cuba, deploy those operations strategically in different regions on the island, and resolve unsuccessful assassination attempts to determine who comes out of it looking the worst. Because of the inevitable failure, players have no way of improving their standing in the eyes of the Head Office; the only way to get ahead in the game of failure is by blaming it on everybody else.
