About Bloc by Bloc: Uprising
Bloc by Bloc: Uprising is a cooperative and semi-cooperative strategy game by Greg Loring-Albright and T.L. Simons. Players lead the Workers, Students, Neighbors, or Prisoners through a city that changes from game to game, balancing shared resistance against their faction’s own ambitions.
The official third-edition overview frames the game around revolutionary politics and street-level tactics. Players build barricades, confront police, occupy districts, establish mutual-aid networks, and try to liberate the city before the military arrives.
