"Daybreak: A Blindly Optimistic Game Fighting Climate Change"

Daybreak, a new board game by Pandemic creator Matt Leacock, tasks players with working together to cut carbon emissions and combat climate change. The game features an engine-building mechanic where players place cards into a personal tableau, allowing for various strategic approaches. While the game offers an optimistic view on solving monumental challenges through human ingenuity and partnership, it is criticized for being more fantasy than a reflection of real-world complexities. Despite this, Daybreak serves as a blueprint to aspire to and will be released in November.
