So Long Sucker


So Long Sucker is a board game invented in 1950 by John Forbes Nash, Mel Hausner, Lloyd S. Shapley and Martin Shubik. It is a four-person bargaining/economic strategy game. Each player begins the game with 7 chips, and in the course of play, attempts to acquire all the other players' chips. This requires making agreements with the other players which are ultimately unenforceable. To win, players must eventually go back on such agreements. The game takes approximately 20 minutes to play.

The rules are as follows:

Nash's original name for the game, before it was published as So Long Sucker, was Fuck Your Buddy. The first episode of Adam Curtis's documentary The Trap, which looked at Nash's work, was subtitled "F**k You Buddy".
